Clayton Kershaw pitched seven strong innings against the Colorado Rockies last night in the Dodgers 11-4 win and he also had the first three hit game of his career, driving in a run in the process. He improved his record to 4-3 and his batting average to .185. It was also his first road win on the season. He has always had a tougher time pitching in Coors Field, with an ERA about twice that of his career ERA but that was his eighth straight win against the Rockies.
The Dodgers had been suffering from a team wide slump for about the past two weeks but broke out of it in a big way last night. They hit four homeruns- Ethier, Rollins, Pederson, and Kendrick. Joc Pederson leads all major league rookie with 14 homeruns although his average has fell into the .250's from a high of the low .300's.
