Jul 3 RHP Zack Greinke was charged with four runs, but two were unearned, in a 5-0 loss to the White Sox. He gave up nine his in falling to 10-4, and his ERA rose to 2.00 for the first time this year. Yahoo! Sports


Jul 3 Greinke took a 5-0 loss Friday night vs Chicago. A two-out Alberto Callaspo error opened the door for two unearned runs scored off Greinke in the third. For the night, Greinke yielded 10 baserunners with six strikeouts in six innings.

Recommendation: Not only does Greinke not get run support, his defense also looms as a hurdle. The Royals have allowed seven unearned runs in his last seven starts. While Greinke ranks as a top AL pitcher, wins may be hard to come by in the future.

Jun 29 Greinke didn't allow any scoring until making his final pitch before a rain delay in the seventh inning, and the Kansas City Royals prevented the Pirates from sweeping an interleague series for the first time since 2001 by winning 3-2 on Sunday.

Advice: Greinke became the AL's fourth 10-game winner, striking out three and walking none during a second successive effective start. His 1.95 ERA leads the majors. Greinke was 0-2 with a 5.19 ERA in four starts after going 8-1 in his first 10, but it 2-0 with three earned runs allowed in 14 1-3 innings in his last two. He pitched eight innings while beating Houston 2-1 on Tuesday.
