Clayton Kershaw pushed back his first bullpen session of the spring Wednesday as a precaution because of mild stiffness in his back.
The reigning National League Cy Young winner first felt discomfort a few days earlier, but isn’t expected to undergo any exams.
Kershaw’s first start in the exhibition is scheduled for March 9.
