Dodgers pitcher Zack Greinke nearly tossed a complete game against the Cubs Monday, and left opposing hitters impressed, according to MLB.com.
Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo said Greinke was hitting all his spots early. "He was throwing a bullpen session there for a little while, hitting all of his spots whenever he wanted to." Greinke expressed frustration that the team was able to prevent him from registering a shutout.
Greinke has a 2.86 ERA in 141 2/3 innings.
