Los Angeles Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw allowed just one run over seven innings in Monday's 14-3 Opening Day victory over the San Diego Padres, notching eight strikeouts while allowing just two hits and no walks. He also scored twice to support himself.
The win tied Kershaw with Don Drysdale for the most Opening Day victories in team history, per Sportsnet Stats. He now owns a 5-0 record with a 0.99 ERA on Opening Day in his career.
Considered one of—if not the best—pitchers in baseball, the southpaw earned NL MVP honors in 2015.
