Greinke On The Mound And At The Plate

Zach Greinke did the job on the mound and at the plate last night. His stat line read 7 innings pitched, 2 hits allowed, 7 strikeouts, and 2 walks. He also went 3 for 3 at the plate with a run scored, raising his season average to .370. Puig had 2 hits, Hanley Ramirez had 3 with an RBI, Ethier had 3 with an RBI, and A.J. Ellis had 2 more RBI's. It was an important series opening win versus the National League West leading Diamondbacks. Newly acquired Ricky Nolasco makes his Dodgers debut versus the Diamondbacks tonight and he is now in a pennant race. It will be interesting to see how he reacts.
