LOS ANGELES (AP) — Clayton Kershaw hears the Cy Young Award talk swirling around him, although he won’t indulge it. With his 20th victory and major league-leading 2.27 ERA, the low-key Los Angeles Dodgers ace is letting his numbers do the talking.
Kershaw became the club’s first 20-game winner in 21 years with a 2-1 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night, making him 5-0 against the rival Giants this season.
