How the game was won: The Dodgers pounded Julio Teheran for 10 hits and eight runs in 4 1/3 innings, including a six-run fourth inning, and rolled to an 8-0 win at Dodger Stadium. Clayton Kershaw was perfect through four innings and limited the Braves to four hits in seven innings, with no walks and 10 strikeouts.

Number: 0.62. Kershaw's ERA in his past four starts against the Braves, including the 2013 division series. In those four games, he's allowed two earned runs with four walks and 37 strikeouts in 29 innings.

What's next: The Braves will try to avoid being swept for the second time in two seasons at Dodger Stadium, when Alex Wood starts Wednesday night against Dodgers co-ace Zack Greinke.
