LOS ANGELES (AP) — Clayton Kershaw earned his 100th career victory on his fifth attempt, and the Los Angeles Dodgers hung on for a 6-4 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Friday night.

Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen, reinstated from the disabled list after recovering from surgery on his left foot in February, struck out four in the eighth inning on 14 pitches. The first one, Carlos Gonzalez, reached base on a passed ball by Yasmani Grandal.

Jansen was the first big leaguer to accomplish the feat since Arizona’s Oliver Perez last Sept. 20 at Colorado. And it couldn’t have come at a better time, after the Rockies scored four runs in the seventh against relievers Paco Rodriguez and Yimi Garcia.

Rookie Adam Liberatore gave up a pair of one-out singles in the ninth before ex-Rockies right-hander Juan Nicasio got the final two outs for his first save in five big league seasons.
