Dodgers Highlights: Clayton Kershaw Vintage in 210th Win of Career, LA Shuts Out Giants

It was "Classic Kersh" at Dodger Stadium for hopefully not the last time.

For what could have been Clayton Kershaw's final regular season start ever at Dodger Stadium, everything couldn't have gone much better. The ace tossed 5 scoreless innings against the rival Giants, lowering his lifetime ERA against San Francisco to an impressive 1.99 over 16 seasons.

The Dodger bullpen followed Kersh with 4 shutout innings of their own as the offense put up 7 to handily beat the Giants 7-0 and take a 2 games to 1 lead in the series.

Clayton Kershaw earned the win and earned career win number 210, moving past Hall of Famer Don Drysdale for second place all time on the franchise wins list.

Box Score

The bats were alive and well in LA on Saturday night as JD Martinez hit another home run, Freddie Freeman hit another double, and Mookie Betts drove in a pair of runs to set a new MLB record.

Max Muncy chipped in a pair of hits and David Peralta picked up his 22nd double of the year.

With the win, the Dodgers clinched a first round bye in the playoffs.
