Dodgers stud lefty Clayton Kershaw placed himself on the doorstep of his second 20-win season Sunday with another fine performance, this time in San Francisco.
Kershaw raised his record to a ridiculous 19-3 and lowered his ERA to an eye-popping 1.70 by surrendering just two runs on seven hits in eight innings to the Giants. He walked one and struck out nine. He was hurt only by RBI singles off the bats of sizzling Buster Posey and Matt Duffy.
The ace of the league will shoot for his 20th win Friday against the Cubs.
