Turns out a no-hitter amounts to more than baseball history. It makes for good merchandising.

Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw ranks third, behind New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter and San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey, on MLB’s list of jersey sales since Opening Day.

Kershaw threw his first career no-hitter on June 18 against the Colorado Rockies.

Yasiel Puig is ninth and Hyun-Jin Ryu is 18th as announced by MLB. The Dodgers are the only MLB club with three players on MLB’s top 20 jersey sales list.
