Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw goes on IL due to bone spur in toe

PHOENIX -- The Los Angeles Dodgershave placed veteran left-hander Clayton Kershaw on the 15-day injured list.

Kershaw, who left Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the second inning, was diagnosed with a bone spur in his left big toe.

"There's so much swelling, he can barely move around," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said before Saturday's 8-6 win over the Diamondbacks.

Roberts said the Dodgers won't know for sure how long Kershaw will be out but are hopeful he'll return before the end of the season.

Kershaw gave up three runs in the first inning and with the early exit, the Dodgers used every reliever on their staff except for Evan Phillips, who had pitched the previous two days.

Kershaw, who didn't pitch until July 25 after having offseason shoulder surgery, is 2-2 with a 4.50 ERA in seven starts. In 17 seasons, all with the Dodgers, the 10-time All-Star has a 212-94 record with a 2.50 ERA.

Right-handerJoe Kellywas also placed on the injured list by Los Angeles on Saturday with right shoulder inflammation. Kelly pitched 1 innings on Friday and gave up two earned runs on three hits. The 13-year veteran is 1-1 with a 5.20 ERA in 31 games this year.

In corresponding moves, the Dodgers called up right-hander Ben Casparius from Triple-A Oklahoma City to replace Kershaw and selected the contract of RHP Brent Honeywell for his second stint with the club this season. Honeywell was designated for assignment on Aug. 18.

Both pitchers came on in relief Saturday, with Honeywell allowing one run in two innings and Casparius pitching a scoreless inning.

LHP Justin Wrobleski is with the team and with roster expansion on Sunday, he will be activated to start that game against Arizona.
