NEW YORK, July 7 (UPI) -- Manny Ramirez drove in three runs before being ejected in the fifth inning Tuesday in the Los Angeles Dodgers' 8-0 win over the New York Mets.

Clayton Kershaw (6-5), pitched six scoreless frames, giving up three hits and striking out seven to get the win. Kershaw is 3-0 over his last five starts and allowed no runs in four of those games.

Orlando Hudson drove in two runs and scored once for the Dodgers. Matt Kemp had an RBI and a run scored, and Blake DeWitt hit his first homer of the season.

Mike Pelfrey (6-4) lasted a season-low three-plus innings, allowing five runs on eight hits for the Mets, who have lost nine of their last 11 games.
