Kershaw tosses CG, Dodgers send Padres to 5th straight loss

Published November 20, 2014

Clayton Kershaw went the distance for his 1, game series.

James Loney smacked a two-run homer and Andre Ethier had three hits and an RBI for Los Angeles, which beat the Padres for the sixth time in the last seven meetings.

Kershaw (17-5) scattered six hits and had five strikeouts to tie Arizona's Ian Kennedy for the National League lead in victories. It was the left-hander's fourth straight win. He's 9-1 over his last 10 starts and moved to 10-1 in 14 games this season at Dodger Stadium.

Additionally, Kershaw has five complete games this season and six for his career.

What's also incredible about Kershaw is his three-game string in which he's given up one run over 23 innings. His performance Monday led the Dodgers to their sixth win in seven games.

Mat Latos (6-13) was charged with five hits and four runs over six innings and has just one victory in the last two months.

Nick Hundley doubled in the only run for the Padres, losers of five in a row.
