Greinke allowed two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings Sunday against the Giants. He did not factor into the decision in the 6-5 victory.
Greinke did well to scatter baserunners, but he ran his pitch count up and left facing a deficit due to Madison Bumgarner's solo home run in the fifth inning. While he clearly would have liked to be more efficient with his pitches, the veteran still put his team in a position to make a late push in a game they ultimately won in walkoff fashion. Greinke is off to a respectable start as he looks to put a substandard 2016 behind him and will look to take another step forward Saturday against the Indians.
