Dodgers 9, Rockies 0: Clayton Kershaw stretched his scoreless innings streak to 36 after striking out eight and allowing two hits in eight frames as visiting Los Angeles won its sixth straight over Colorado.

Yasiel Puig and Scott Van Slyke homered for the Dodgers, who banged out a season-high 19 hits while increasing their lead to 1 1/2 games over San Francisco in the National League West. Dee Gordon, Andre Ethier (RBI) and A.J. Ellis (RBI) had three hits apiece while Kershaw had two hits and drove in his first run of the season.

Kershaw (10-2), who no-hit Colorado in their previous encounter June 18, won his seventh consecutive start - including three against the Rockies - while lowering his ERA to 1.85. The reigning and two-time NL Cy Young Award winner has yielded one run and five hits in 22 innings against Colorado this season.

Jair Jurrjens, who was acquired from the Cincinnati organization Wednesday, yielded eight runs and 12 hits in 4 2/3 innings in his first major-league start since June 29, 2013. DJ LeMahieu and Nolan Arenado had the only hits - both singles - as the Rockies lost their fifth straight game and fell to 2-14 in their last 16 contests.

Los Angeles struck quickly when Gordon led off with a bunt single, Puig blasted a 1-1 pitch out to center and Hanley Ramirez doubled before Ethier's two-out triple made it 3-0. The Dodgers broke it open with five in the fifth on Van Slyke's three-run shot to left and RBI singles by Ellis and Kershaw - all with two out.
