SAN FRANCISCO -- One night after Clayton Kershaw's clinching one-hitter, Mike Leake pitched a two-hitter as the Giants blanked the Dodgers on Wednesday night, 5-0, at AT&T Park.
The loss left the Dodgers one game behind the Mets (who also lost Wednesday) for the home-field advantage in the National League Division Series. New York owns the tiebreaker over Los Angeles by virtue of winning the season series between the two teams.
Matt Duffy slugged a two-run homer off Mike Bolsinger in the first inning and Nick Noonan hit a solo shot off Joel Peralta in the seventh, the first of Noonan's Major League career.
