Kershaw Gets No Run Support In Loss To Padres

Mat Latos bounced back from stomach flu to strike out 10 for the third time in four starts, pitching the NL West-leading San Diego Padres to a 2-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night.

Latos held Los Angeles to four hits in seven innings. He set a big league record with his 15th straight start of five or more innings with two or fewer runs allowed. He had been tied with Greg Maddux (1993-94) and Mike Scott (1986) with 14.

Latos (14-5) also lowered his major league-leading ERA from 2.25 to 2.21. His 10 strikeouts matched his career high, and his 113 pitches were a career high. He walked none.
