The Los Angeles Dodgers are appreciating every moment of Clayton Kershaw’s brilliance this season.

From his first start since being activated from the injured list to his 3,000th strikeout, the uncertainty of 2025 makes for that much more reason to cherish each moment from the southpaw.

Kershaw spoke to the Orange County Register’s Bill Plunkett about the night he joined the 3,000 strikeout club, but also about how much more lies ahead for both him and his team.

“Not to be not appreciative of moments like because that was a really special night in L.A. I wouldn’t change anything that that night was.

That was so special,” Kershaw said. “But I don’t know what is going to happen in the future. I really have no idea when it comes to the years beyond this one. So I’m just trying to enjoy it, be part of a really good team this year. We still have a lot to accomplish. We still have October. It’s really hard to look at stuff individually when you’re trying to accomplish something as a team.

“Maybe when it’s all said and done I’ll look back. I’m not a big look-back guy. Just enjoy where you’re at.”

After another milestone — receiving his 11th All-Star nod, this time by way of the Commissioner’s Legend Pick —the MVP touched on the unique nature of how he got to Atlanta, but once again appreciating the accomplishments that this season holds.

“You never take for granted getting to go to an All-Star Game, regardless of the circumstances,” he said. “Obviously, I don’t deserve to get to go this season. Haven’t pitched very much. But everything that it encompasses to go to an All-Star Game, I get to take my family – I’ll never pass up that opportunity.”

The appreciation for the 37-year-old and the celebration of all that he is still accomplishing won’t make a potential farewell any easier, but focusing on his current productivity and dedication to getting back to October is something that will be remembered for years to come.
