The Dodgers keep right on rolling.

They came right back to beat the Cardinals soundly twice after their streak was snapped. They took 3 out of 4 from them in St. Louis.

They are 17-3 since the All-Star break, and 34-8 in their last 42 games.

1 earned run over 8 innings.

A sweep of the Rays.

37-8 over their last 45 games.

Kershaw is incredible, and so has been his team over the last 2 months.

Big win last night.

Not so much for the Dodgers, who are sitting comfortably atop their division by 10.5 games, but for the Orioles.
