Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw lasted fewer than six innings for the second straight start on Tuesday night against the Mets. He allowed two runs on three hits with four walks over five innings of work.

The left-hander surrendered all of his damage in the third when, after putting two men on, he gave up back-to-back RBI singles. He cruised after that and left with the score tied at 2-2.

Kershaw, who threw 111 pitches, also struck out five in a no-decision.

His next start is scheduled for Sunday against the Brewers. In one start against Milwaukee last season, Kershaw allowed five runs over 5 2/3 innings in a loss.
