Despite rust, Greinke makes scoreless debut

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Zack Greinke said he was a little rusty Friday in the D-backs' 15-3 victory vs. the Dodgers, but that's to be expected for a spring debut.

"Decent first outing is a way to put it," Greinke said. "It's definitely got to get better, but that's the way you expect the first outing a little bit."

Greinke threw 33 pitches, 17 for strikes, over 1 2/3 scoreless innings, a sign that he was not very sharp.

"It just usually is like that a little bit the first outing," Greinke said.
