Clayton Kershaw took a perfect game through the seventh in the Dodgers' 9-1 win over the Angels. The left-hander is a strong candidate to start the All-Star Game at Dodger Stadium next week
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Clayton Kershaw took a perfect game through the seventh and finished with eight scoreless innings of one-hit ball in the Los Angeles Dodgers' 9-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night.
The 34-year-old Kershaw was selected to his ninth All-Star team earlier this month, and he is a strong sentimental candidate to start the Midsummer Classic at Dodger Stadium. Justin Turner had three hits, drove in four runs and also made the first of three spectacular defensive plays by the Dodgers' infield to keep Kershaw's perfect game intact. Will Smith went 4 for 4 with a walk, while Hanser Alberto had a two-run triple in the fifth inning as the Dodgers rolled toward the All-Star break with 13 wins in 15 games.
Patrick Sandoval yielded seven hits and two earned runs while failing to get through the fifth inning for the Angels.
