LHP Clayton Kershaw picked up his third win of the season when he allowed just two hits with eight strikeouts and two walks over six innings in the Dodgers 2-0 win over the Padres on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Kershaw was locked in on Saturday, limiting the powerful San Diego offense to just two hits and a pair of walks over his six innings of work. He even helped his own cause by drawing a bases-loaded walk against Yu Darvish in the top of the fifth inning to score the game's first run. After a disastrous first outing in Colorado to start the year, Kershaw has allowed just one earned run over his last 19 innings. He now owns a 2.19 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and 24:3 K/BB ratio over 24 2/3 innings (four starts). He draws the Padres again, at home, in his next turn.
