Dodgers' Kershaw loses a perfect game to the Angels in the eighth inning.

Prior to Luis Rengifo's leadoff double for the Los Angeles Angels in the eighth inning, Clayton Kershaw had pitched seven flawless innings for the Los Angeles Dodgers. On Friday night at Angel Stadium, Kershaw needed just 71 pitches to retire the first 21 batters in a row. Rengifo, though, halted Kershaw's bid for his second no-hitter and first perfect game with a crisp double down the left field line.
