No one would have blamed Detroit manager Jim Leyland had he done a rain dance in the dugout with Clayton Kershaw dominating his team inning after inning. The only other time the Tigers faced the Los Angeles Dodgers' 23-year-old left-hander back in 2008, he pitched four scoreless innings of two-hit ball at Detroit before a 47-minute rain delay ended his night. The Tigers won that game. But since it rarely rains in Southern California, the Tigers were forced to put up with Kershaw for nine innings Monday night. He threw a two-hitter for his third career shutout and complete game, and Los Angeles resumed its interleague schedule with a 4-0 victory. It was the second straight shutout for the Dodgers, who beat Houston 1-0 on Sunday. Read more: http://scores.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=310620119&teams=detroit-tigers-vs-los-angeles-dodgers
