It was more of the same from Moore his last time out as he allowed two more home runs and delivered his fifth start of five innings or less over his last six outings. He put up five innings against the Twins on the second and yielded four runs on eight hits -- two homers -- while he also walked two and struck out four.
Zack Greinke Scouting Report:
This past off-season, the Diamondbacks surprisingly turned out to be the highest bidders to obtain Zack Greinke. Since then, Greinke has turned in several quality starts for Arizona as he has pitched excellently for the Diamondbacks...away from Phoenix. So far this year, Greinke has given up 31 runs over 42 innings at home...compared to just six runs while pitching away from Arizona (35 innings). Greinke's last start may have been his best of the year as he delivered seven shutout innings against the Astros, allowing just four hits, walking none, and struck out 11.
