Kudos to Kershaw on a near perfect no-no



That is about as dominating a pitching performance as we've seen in some time. For anyone to have 15 K's without a walk while throwing only 107 pitches is remarkably efficient.  Congrats to Clayton.



from ESPN:

Colorado Rockies vs. Los Angeles Dodgers - Recap - June 18, 2014 - ESPN:

Cheered on by his wife in the stands, Kershaw (7-2) retired his first 18 batters before Corey Dickerson led off the seventh with a slowbouncer to Ramirez. His throw on the run went wide past first baseman Adrian Gonzalez for a two-base error -- ending any chance for a perfect game.

But that was it for the Rockies against Kershaw, who shrugged off the miscue. 
 "He had command of everything. I told him between innings: 'It's not fair when you have a devastating slider and a devastating curveball in the same night,'" catcher A.J. Ellis said. "And when he does that, nights like this are really possible."
