Spahn Sets All-Time Left-Handed K Record With 2383
Spahn, 42, pitched past the Dodgers 4 3 to notch his 14th win and 341st career victory while his 2383rd strikeout made him the all-time lefty K king. He fanned Al Ferrara for the final out after a two-week tendonitis break, with Johnny Podres dented early by Denis Menke and a late score from a Menke sac fly. Dodgers keep four-game NL lead as Reds blank Giants and Cardinals beat ColtS.
