Clayton Kershaw was efficient throughout the night and the Los Angeles Dodgers received contributions throughout their lineup, led by Cody Bellinger, in a 7-4 win over the L.A. Angels in the Freeway Series opener. The Dodgers have a three-game winning streak for a third time this season.
Kershaw had a no-hitter through four innings, then lost it on a leadoff home run to Anthony Rendon that cut the Dodgers’ lead in half in the fifth. Kershaw bounced back from that to retire the next eight batters faced.
The string was snapped by Rendon, who drew a two-out walk in the seventh inning.
