    The home runs haven't exactly been coming in bunches for Matt Kemp since his hamstring problems began back in May. So when he gets one, he doesn't care how far it goes.

    The slugging center fielder drove in the Dodgers' first two runs Saturday night with a fly ball that deflected off the glove of Chicago Cubs counterpart Joe Mather and over the fence in right-center. Clayton Kershaw and the bullpen made the lead stand up, and Los Angeles came away with a 3-1 victory.
