Clayton Kershaw’s career has so far been spectacular in almost every way manageable.From his sparking W-L record of 84-48 to his remarkable career E.R.A of 2.60. He also has had great success in his postseason starts as well but outside of winning a World series, there was only one other thing missing from his resume: a no hitter. Well, that box got checked off last night as he tossed his first no hitter of his career vs the Rockies last night at Chavez Ravine.

The Dodgers have been treading water without their superstar ace in Clayton Kershaw since he went down with a back injury after he made his start vs the Diamondbacks in Australia on March 22. Los Angeles has gone 15-12 since Kershaw last toed the rubber  for them, enough to stay right in the thick of the underwhelming NL West division so far this season.
