Dodgers three-time Cy Young winner and reigning MVP Clayton Kershaw extended his scoreless innings streak on Saturday to 37 innings, after shutting out the crosstown-rival Angels—and the AL’s reigning MVP Mike Trout—for eight frames in a 3–1 win.
This latest hot streak is nothing new to Kershaw, though, who went 41 innings last year without giving up a run—it’s not even new to this year’s Dodgers franchise. Fellow ace Zack Greinke just had his own 45 2/3-innings streak snapped on July 26 against the Mets. (FYI, the record is 59 innings by another Dodger—Orel Hershiser.)
