Finishing With A Flourish

The Los Angeles Dodgers just finished taking two out of three from the second place San Francisco Giants and they took the last two with style. After getting blown out in the first game 9-0 after Hyun-Jin Ryu left in the first inning with shoulder stiffness, the Dodgers took the last two games, 17-0 and 4-2. The 17-0 victory featured the hitting and pitching of Zach Greinke who pitched 7 shutout innings and hit a two run homer. He improved his record to 15-8 with the win. The rubber game of the series featured the pitching of Clayton Kershaw (8 innings, 2 ER, 8 K's, 2 BB's, and a 19-3 record) and the hitting of Matt Kemp (his 20th HR and now 74 RBI's). The Dodgers left San Francisco with a three game lead with thirteen games to play and left with what they needed. They face the bottom feeding Colorado Rockies next and need to take at least two games in this series.
