CINCINNATI >> Dodgers right-hander Zack Greinke will start for the National League in Tuesday night’s All-Star Game and Houston Astros lefty Dallas Keuchel will be on the mound for the American League.
The 31-year-old Greinke is 8-2 with a big league-best 1.39 ERA and enters the game at Great American Ball Park following five straight scoreless starts over 35 2-3 innings.
“These numbers he’s putting up are really, really unbelievable,” NL manager Bruce Bochy said Monday.
Greinke’s wife Emily was so excited she will be at the game even though she is about three weeks from giving birth.
