By Jon Weisman

With three strikeouts tonight, Clayton Kershaw will have his sixth consecutive 200-strikeout season.

The only Dodger to strike out 200 in six straight years is Sandy Koufax (1961-66). The only other Major Leaguers to do it are …

  • Tom Seaver (nine seasons, 1968-76)
  • Walter Johnson (seven seasons, 1910-16)
  • Roger Clemens (seven seasons, 1986-92)
  • Sam McDowell (six seasons, 1965-70)
  • Mickey Lolich (six seasons, 1969-74)
  • Bert Blyleven (six seasons, 1971-76)
  • Randy Johnson (six seasons, 1997-2002)
  • Felix Hernandez (six seasons, 2009-14)

Hernandez has 145 strikeouts this season.
