Cody Bellinger hit his 32nd and 33rd homers, Clayton Kershaw struck out seven in six innings and the major league-leading Los Angeles Dodgers routed the Philadelphia Phillies 16-2 on Monday night.

Bellinger passed reigning NL MVP Christian Yelich for the MLB lead in homers and drew "M-V-P" chants from a large group of Dodgers fans who made the cross-country trip to Philly and nearly turned it into a home game for Los Angeles.

The vocal Dodgers faithful, sitting across several sections in the second deck in right field, taunted Bryce Harper by chanting "Over-rated!" and "Where is Harper?" after the slugger exited the game.

Kershaw (8-2) gave up one run and four hits and retired 11 of the last 12 batters he faced.

Philadelphia's Zach Eflin (7-9) allowed seven runs and nine hits in six innings. After three relievers surrendered seven runs, Phillies manager Gabe Kapler made the call to his bench and brought in outfielder Roman Quinn with the bases loaded in the eighth.

Quinn retired Joc Pederson on a fly ball to left and allowed two runs in the ninth, though it would've been a clean inning if first baseman Rhys Hoskins ran to the bag after fielding Bellinger's grounder.

The Phillies are 15-24 since a 33-22 start.

After Kershaw pitched out of a bases-loaded jam for the second straight inning, the Dodgers scored six runs in the fourth.

Justin Turner started it with an RBI double. Max Muncy's checked-swing, infield hit drove in another run. Enrique Hernandez had an RBI single. Austin Barnes' suicide squeeze turned into a single because nobody was covering first base. Pederson's infield hit deflected off Eflin and drove in another run. Barnes then stole home on a double steal with Pederson taking second to make it 6-1.

Scott Kingery ripped a solo drive to left to give the Phillies a 1-0 lead, snapping an 0-for-9 slump with his 12 homer.

Kershaw walked two batters in the second after walking only two batters in his previous three starts combined but Jay Bruce flied out to end the inning. Bruce struck out with the bases loaded in the third and Maikel Franco grounded out to end a 10-pitch at-bat.
