Tweet o' the day: Matt Kemp to OKC

The Dodgers' Matt Kemp is from Oklahoma City. He homered in tonight's Dodgers win in Milwaukee and after the game he represented. "It's bad. Real bad," Kemp told Ken Gurnick.

By the way, it was another gem of a game by pitcher Clayton Kershaw. He pitched the entire game and allowed the Brewers just three hits and one run. For those who are aware of the recent conversation in baseball about Kershaw's workload, he got the complete game tonight with only 107 pitches. The Dodgers won 3-1, also getting a home run from Andre Ethier.
