Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw allowed five runs on eight hits and walked four batters in 5 2/3 innings of work for a no-decision Sunday against the Rockies.
The Dodgers led 2-0 before the Rockies scored five times in the fourth inning off Kershaw, producing the biggest inning against the lefty since May 2014.
"Definitely not up to par for what I expect and this team expects," Kershaw said. "Fortunately [Zack] Greinke's pitching great and Brett [Anderson] has pitched good his last two times out, [Carlos] Frias has pitched really well. Need to start getting on pace with those guys."
It was the fourth unsuccessful attempt for Kershaw, the reigning NL MVP and CY Young winner, to win his 100th regular-season game.
Kershaw recorded the 1,500th strikeout of his career in the game.
Kershaw will try for No. 100 again on Friday against the Rockies.
