    Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts immediately came out of the dugout with an athletic trainer after Carroll’s 18th homer curled just inside the right foul pole to remove the three-time NL Cy Young Award winner.

    Carroll’s homer cut Los Angeles’ lead to 5-3.

    The Dodgers led the Diamondbacks by four games in the NL West heading into Friday’s game.

    Kershaw had made six starts since spending the first four months of the season on the injured list as he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery. He entered the game 2-2 with a 3.72 ERA.

    The Dodgers have been hit hard by pitching injuries this season, with Walker Buehler, Brusdar Graterol and Yoshinobu Yamamoto among the players missing time.
