Arizona Diamondbacks: Jhoulys Chacin outduels Zack Greinke in San Diego

The bar was set high for Zack Greinke of the Arizona Diamondbacks, and he delivered. Unfortunately, one bad pitch cost him and the Diamondbacks a win in San Diego.

Greinke kept the rotation on a roll. The righty allowed one run on five hits over eight innings. But, San Diego Padres starter Jhoulys Chacin one-upped the Diamondbacks ace. The former Diamondback tossed eight shutout innings and surrendered just three hits.

Chacin threw 32 sinkers and 27 four-seam fastballs. The Venezuela native threw 38 curveballs, the most he has thrown in any start this season. The three-pitch mix kept Arizona hitters off balance.
