CINCINNATI—Clayton Kershaw said he knew he had to do his part to stop the bleeding.

Following two straight walk-off losses, the three-time NL Cy Young Award winner and former league MVP pitched seven scoreless innings and struck out nine as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Cincinnati Reds 6–0 on Thursday afternoon, June 8, to snap a four-game losing streak and avoid a series sweep.
