UNDATED (AP) — Clayton Kershaw followed his first career no-hitter with another gem as the Los Angeles Dodgers earned a 2-0 shutout in Kansas City.

Kershaw's bid to become the second pitcher in major league history to toss back-to-back no-hitters ended when Eric Hosmer hit a one-out single in the bottom of the first. The lefty scattered six hits over eight innings to help the Dodgers bounce back from Monday's loss to the Royals.

Justin Turner led off the game with a triple before scoring the winning run on an RBI grounder by Adrian Gonzalez. Andre Ethier (EE'-thee-ur) added a run-scoring single in the ninth.

The Royals wasted a nice outing by Danny Duffy, who allowed just a run and four hits in six innings.
