Add another accomplishment to Clayton Kershaw's illustrious resume.
The Los Angeles Dodgers southpaw became the 39th pitcher in Major League Baseball history to record 2,500 career strikeouts when he fanned Nick Ahmed in the second inning of Thursday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
ESPN noted Don Sutton is the only other Dodger to reach the mark, while Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Zack Greinke and Cole Hamels are the only other active pitchers to do so.
Nolan Ryan has the most career strikeouts with 5,714.
