Kershaw's 15 Ks Lead Dodgers Over Giants 2-1

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Once Dodgers manager Don Mattingly crossed the foul line without signaling the bullpen in the ninth inning, Clayton Kershaw knew he was safe to finish off the San Francisco Giants.Mattingly wanted to check on his ace, who after rolling through the first five innings, gave up two two-out hits.Kershaw assured Mattingly he was just fine and he proved it, striking out Marlon Byrd to close out a 2-1 victory Wednesday night that increased the Dodgers' NL West lead to 6 ½ games."These guys are great hitters," Kershaw said.
