Clayton Kershaw and Reid Detmers dueled through seven scoreless innings, and the Dodgers opened the Freeway Series with a 2-0 win over the Angels.
Clayton Kershaw pitches seven masterful innings, then Ferguson and Phillips close things out as Dodgers win opener of two-game set.
Kershaw caught a huge break in the fourth when an apparent Angels run was nullified by a replay review that overturned a safe call at the plate, but he did not need any assistance to extricate himself out of a tight spot in the seventh. Seven of Kershaw’s wins this season, including four of his last five starts, have come after losses. Kershaw ended the Dodgers’ four-game losing streak with seven shutout innings in a 6-0 win at Cincinnati on June8.
