Kershaw allowed two earned runs with 10 strikeouts and zero walks across 7.2 strong innings Sunday versus the Mets. He did not factor into the decision.
Kershaw was pulled from the game with a man on base and a one-run lead with two outs in the eighth inning, but Adam Liberatore allowed the inherited runner to score, tying the game before L.A. won it in the ninth. Kershaw was exceptional yet again, tossing his fifth game this season with double-digit strikeouts and zero walks, which has led to an otherworldly WHIP of 0.65 through 86.2 innings. He will look to continue his potentially historic season Friday versus the Braves.
