Latest News
Nov. 17 11:06 AM PT12:06 PM MT1:06 PM CT2:06 PM ET7:06 PM GMT3:06 AM 北京时间-Greinke has won the American League Cy Young Award, beating out Felix Hernandez after a spectacular season short on wins but long on domination.
Analysis: Greinke had a 16-8 record with a 2.16 ERA for the Kansas City Royals. He tossed six complete games and struck out 242.
Oct. 4 1:46 PM PT2:46 PM MT3:46 PM CT4:46 PM ET9:46 PM GMT5:46 AM 北京时间-Greinke alloed four runs and six hits in six innings in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Twins, but didn't receive a decision.
Analysis: Greinke, the top candidate for the AL Cy Young Award, had been on an impressive tear, entering the game with a 0.43 ERA over his previous six starts. He didn't allow a hit through three innings, but was outpitched by Nick Blackburn, who was perfect through four innings and allowed two runs on four hits in seven innings. Greinke's ERA rose from 2.06 to 2.16, the first time in seven starts that number has increased.
Sep. 24 6:14 PM PT7:14 PM MT8:14 PM CT9:14 PM ET2:14 AM GMT10:14 AM 北京时间-Greinke has been ejected for yelling something from the bench against the Boston Red Sox.
Analysis: Greinke, who doesn't pitch again until Sunday, was ejected by home plate umpire Greg Gibson with one out in the third inning Thursday night. Greinke apparently said something after a 1-2 pitch by Royals starter Anthony Lerew was called a ball and Gibson quickly tossed him.
Sep. 19 2:55 PM PT3:55 PM MT4:55 PM CT5:55 PM ET10:55 PM GMT6:55 AM 北京时间-Greinke, who was struck on the upper part of his throwing arm by a liner off the bat of Detroit's Miguel Cabrera on Thursday, may have his next start pushed back a day.
Analysis: Greinke was scheduled to start Tuesday against the Red Sox, but the Royals may wait an additional day. He is scheduled to play toss before Saturday's game against the White Sox. "Greinke feels OK other than where he took his shot. He feels fine," said Royals manager Trey Hillman.
Sep. 18 2:08 PM PT3:08 PM MT4:08 PM CT5:08 PM ET10:08 PM GMT6:08 AM 北京时间-Greinke lowered his major league-leading ERA to 2.14 with five scoreless innings in a 9-2 victory Thursday over the Tigers.
Analysis: Greinke (14-8) gave up three hits, struck out eight and walked two. He has allowed only one earned run in his past four starts, lowering his ERA from 2.43.
Sep. 23 8:48 AM PT9:48 AM MT10:48 AM CT11:48 AM ET4:48 PM GMT12:48 AM 北京时间-Greinke, perhaps the leading candidate for the AL Cy Young Award, was hit in his pitching arm with a line drive in the fourth inning of Kansas City's 9-2 win at Detroit on Thursday.
Analysis: Greinke stayed in the game through the fifth and left after allowing three hits and striking out eight. There'd normally be little reason to risk anything with Greinke, but with the Cy Young Award on the line manager Trey Hillman may have a different mindset.
Sep. 6 1:38 PM PT2:38 PM MT3:38 PM CT4:38 PM ET9:38 PM GMT5:38 AM 北京时间-Greinke, who threw a one-hitter at Seattle in his last start and struck out a club-record 15 in his previous outing against Cleveland on Aug. 25, allowed one unearned run on eight hits in eight innings of the Royals' 2-1, 11-inning loss to the Angels on Saturday.
Analysis: He left after a career high 125 pitches and lowered his ERA to a major league-best 2.22. In his last three starts, he has allowed two earned runs and 14 hits, while striking 28 in 25 innings, and is the clear front-runner for the AL Cy Young Award.
Aug. 31 3:43 PM PT4:43 PM MT5:43 PM CT6:43 PM ET11:43 PM GMT7:43 AM 北京时间-Greinke pitched a one-hitter Sunday, allowing only a second-inning single by Kenji Johjima as the Royals beat the Seattle Mariners 3-0.
Analysis: Greinke retired the final 22 batters after Johjima's two-out, soft single to center field. The right-hander - who struck out 15 in his previous start - leads the majors with three shutouts and six complete games, and his 2.32 ERA is best in the AL, all substantial arguments for the Cy Young Award.
Aug. 26 12:38 PM PT1:38 PM MT2:38 PM CT3:38 PM ET8:38 PM GMT4:38 AM 北京时间-Greinke struck out a team-record 15 in eight overpowering innings and got some rare offensive support, helping the Kansas City Royals end a five-game losing streak with a 6-2 win over the Cleveland Indians on Tuesday night.
Analysis: Greinke's numbers are potentially Cy Young Award-worthy this year, but he had been in somewhat of a lull lately, with only one win in his last nine starts. He certainly grabbed some attention Tuesday, breaking Mark Gubicza's 21-year-old team record of 14 strikeouts in a game.
Aug. 20 10:40 AM PT11:40 AM MT12:40 PM CT1:40 PM ET6:40 PM GMT2:40 AM 北京时间-Greinke allowed four runs and six hits - three homers - over seven innings while strking out eight and was on the hook for the Royals' 4-2 loss to the White Sox on Wednesday.
Analysis: Coming in, he had given up only seven home runs all season and had just one multiple-homer game against him, June 5 at Toronto. Greinke entered July at 10-3 with a 1.95 ERA but is 1-5 with a 3.41 ERA since.
Aug. 15 12:38 PM PT1:38 PM MT2:38 PM CT3:38 PM ET8:38 PM GMT4:38 AM 北京时间-Greinke pitched seven innings, allowing three hits and a season-high four walks in Friday's 1-0 loss to Detroit.
Analysis: Greinke has four starts this season where he has not won despite allowing one run or less.
Aug. 9 10:15 AM PT11:15 AM MT12:15 PM CT1:15 PM ET6:15 PM GMT2:15 AM 北京时间-Greinke earned his first win over an American League club since May 26 in a 12-6 win over the A's on Saturday.
Analysis: Greinke was 0-5 and the Royals were winless in his previous nine starts against AL teams before going seven innings and allowing three runs on seven hits for his first victory since June 28 at Pittsburgh. "I know that's all that matters, but I don't focus a whole lot on wins cause you can't really control them completely," Greinke said.
Aug. 4 12:38 PM PT1:38 PM MT2:38 PM CT3:38 PM ET8:38 PM GMT4:38 AM 北京时间-In his fourth straight loss, Greinke endured one of his worst performances of the season in allowing six runs and 10 hits over five innings of a 10-4 loss Monday at Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Until July, Greinke (10-7, 2.36 ERA) was 10-3 with a major league-leading 1.95 ERA. Since then, he's 0-4 with a 3.65 ERA. Greinke will try to turn things around Saturday night against Oakland. The Royals right-hander is 3-0 with a 2.82 ERA in six career starts versus the A's.
Jul. 30 1:26 PM PT2:26 PM MT3:26 PM CT4:26 PM ET9:26 PM GMT5:26 AM 北京时间-Greinke pitched six innings of five-hit ball and left with a 3-2 lead but Kansas City lost 7-3 to Baltimore on Wednesday.
Analysis: The AL ERA leader at 2.08 is 0-3 with a 2.53 ERA in five July starts.
Jul. 25 12:10 PM PT1:10 PM MT2:10 PM CT3:10 PM ET8:10 PM GMT4:10 AM 北京时间-Greinke held the Rangers to one run and three hits while striking out 10 in seven innings Friday but still suffered the 2-0 defeat.
Analysis: Greinke is 0-3 in four starts in July - all Royals losses - despite his 2.42 ERA this month. The right-hander's gotten a total of three runs of support over 26 innings during that stretch.
Jul. 19 11:56 AM PT12:56 PM MT1:56 PM CT2:56 PM ET7:56 PM GMT3:56 AM 北京时间-Greinke allowed one run and nine hits with seven strikeouts in seven innings of Saturday's 4-2 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Greinke, who had lost his last two starts when the Royals scored a total of one run, departed with a 2-1 lead. He is 0-2 with a 2.84 ERA in three starts this month.
Jul. 4 5:33 PM PT6:33 PM MT7:33 PM CT8:33 PM ET1:33 AM GMT9:33 AM 北京时间-Greinke (10-4) saw his major league-best ERA go from 1.95 to 2.00 after giving up four runs - two earned - and nine hits in six innings of a 5-0 loss to the White Sox on Friday.
Analysis: He walked one and struck out six but the nine hits tied for the most he's allowed all season and made him 2-1 in three decisions against Chicago. The key to solving Greinke may be holding back on inviting pitches that only flirt with the strike zone.
Jun. 29 1:31 PM PT2:31 PM MT3:31 PM CT4:31 PM ET9:31 PM GMT5:31 AM 北京时间-Greinke didn't allow any scoring until making his final pitch before a rain delay in the seventh inning, and the Kansas City Royals prevented the Pirates from sweeping an interleague series for the first time since 2001 by winning 3-2 on Sunday.
Analysis: Greinke became the AL's fourth 10-game winner, striking out three and walking none during a second successive effective start. His 1.95 ERA leads the majors. Greinke was 0-2 with a 5.19 ERA in four starts after going 8-1 in his first 10, but it 2-0 with three earned runs allowed in 14 1-3 innings in his last two. He pitched eight innings while beating Houston 2-1 on Tuesday.
Jun. 24 2:08 PM PT3:08 PM MT4:08 PM CT5:08 PM ET10:08 PM GMT6:08 AM 北京时间-Greinke allowed one run and eight hits with five strikeouts in eight innings of a 2-1 win over Houston on Tuesday.
Analysis: It was his first win since throwing a complete game against Detroit on May 26. He was 0-2 with a 5.19 ERA in his last four starts.
Jun. 12 2:49 PM PT3:49 PM MT4:49 PM CT5:49 PM ET10:49 PM GMT6:49 AM 北京时间-Greinke, coming off his worst start of the season, allowed three runs and six hits over 7 1-3 innings as the Royals lost to Cleveland 4-3 in 10 innings on Thursday.
Analysis: The right-hander won his first six starts and had an astounding 0.40 ERA on May 4. Then the Royals went just 2-4 in his next six outings, including a 9-3 loss at Toronto on Friday in which Greinke gave up five runs.
Jun. 6 3:57 PM PT4:57 PM MT5:57 PM CT6:57 PM ET11:57 PM GMT7:57 AM 北京时间-In his worst outing of the season, Greinke suffered his second loss in Friday night's 9-3 defeat in Toronto - the Royals' eighth straight. The right-hander, who had a 1.10 ERA in his first 11 starts, was tagged for seven runs (five earned) and gave up his first home run in 111 innings - a streak dating back to Sept. 2.
Analysis: Greinke (8-2) remains the major league leader in ERA and is 2-2 with a 2.79 ERA in his last six starts. He will likely start Thursday night in Cleveland and is 1-0 with a 1.64 ERA in two starts this season against the Indians.
Jun. 1 9:30 AM PT10:30 AM MT11:30 AM CT12:30 PM ET5:30 PM GMT1:30 AM 北京时间-Greinke, going for his major league-leading ninth win, went seven innings and gave up eight hits - striking out seven - but settled for a no-decision as the Royals lost 7-4 to the White Sox on Sunday.
Analysis: Greinke, who had trouble with his usually reliable slider, saw his ERA creep up from 0.84 to 1.10. His ERA was going to go over 1.00 at some point, but what Greinke's been able to accomplish in his first 11 starts has been nothing short of remarkable.
May 27 2:32 PM PT3:32 PM MT4:32 PM CT5:32 PM ET10:32 PM GMT6:32 AM 北京时间-Greinke struck out eight and pitched his fifth complete game in Tuesday night's 6-1 win over visiting Detroit.
Analysis: Greinke (8-1, 0.84 ERA) shut out the Tigers over the final eight innings after allowing an earned run in the first. He threw a season-high 116 pitches and did not give up a walk. He will likely next pitch Tuesday night at Tampa Bay. Greinke is 0-2 with a 3.60 ERA in four career starts against the Rays.
May 22 11:20 AM PT12:20 PM MT1:20 PM CT2:20 PM ET7:20 PM GMT3:20 AM 北京时间-Greinke didn't factor into a decision for the first time this season in Thursday's 8-3 loss to visiting Cleveland.
Analysis: Greinke (7-1, 0.82 ERA) allowed two runs for the second time this season and gave up a season-high eight hits. He is scheduled to face Detroit at home on Tuesday night. Greinke allowed his first run of the season - unearned - against the Tigers on April 24 at Kauffman Stadium. He is 9-4 with a 2.86 ERA in his career versus Detroit.
May 16 11:03 AM PT12:03 PM MT1:03 PM CT2:03 PM ET7:03 PM GMT3:03 AM 北京时间-Greinke picked up his seven victory of the season Friday, striking out six and allowing one earned run in an 8-1 win over Baltimore.
Analysis: After giving up a run on Aubrey Huff's single in the third, Greinke got into a groove, retiring 11 of the next 12 batters before leaving after 106 pitches.
May 10 10:04 AM PT11:04 AM MT12:04 PM CT1:04 PM ET6:04 PM GMT2:04 AM 北京时间-Greinke was excellent again Saturday against the Los Angeles Angels, allowing four hits, no walks and one run in a complete game. There was only one difference - the Royals and Greinke lost, 1-0.
Analysis: Greinke had won his first six starts, while posting a microscopic ERA of less than half a run. While the loss was hardly his fault, it may be something he encounters every now and then this year as opposing pitchers get fired up to face him.
May 5 9:48 AM PT10:48 AM MT11:48 AM CT12:48 PM ET5:48 PM GMT1:48 AM 北京时间-Greinke turned in another masterful effort to beat the Chicago White Sox 3-0 on Monday. He scattered six hits and struck out 10 for his second shutout in four starts. Greinke issued no walks.
Analysis: Greinke is simply the best pitcher in baseball at 6-0. He joined Bret Saberhagen (1987) and Jose Lima (2003) as the only pitchers in franchise history to win their first six decisions. "That's very, very exciting. This is what it's all about," Royals manager Trey Hillman said. "I'm sure glad he pitches for us."
May 1 8:31 AM PT9:31 AM MT10:31 AM CT11:31 AM ET4:31 PM GMT12:31 AM 北京时间-Greinke gave up an earned run for the first time in 43 innings in Wednesday's 11-3 win over the Blue Jays. Greinke, whose 43 innings without an earned run are a club record, joined former Los Angeles Dodger great Fernando Valenzuela as the only pitchers since the early 1900s to not allow an earned run through their first four starts of a season.
Analysis: Vernon Wells' RBI single with two outs in the first produced the first earned run off Greinke (5-0) since last September, a span of six starts. After throwing complete games his two previous starts, Greinke went seven innings, allowing five hits and two runs with two walks and eight strikeouts. He leads the AL with 44 strikeouts. His ERA climbed from 0.00 to 0.50.
Apr. 25 8:31 PM PT9:31 PM MT10:31 PM CT11:31 PM ET4:31 AM GMT12:31 AM 北京时间-Greinke's scoreless streak was snapped Friday at 38 innings.
Analysis: Greinke pitched his second complete game, striking out 10. He allowed an unearned run in the fifth and retired the last 15 batters he faced. Greinke is 4-0 this season with 36 strikeouts. He's allowed 19 hits.
Apr. 19 9:26 AM PT10:26 AM MT11:26 AM CT12:26 PM ET5:26 PM GMT1:26 AM 北京时间-Greinke improved to 3-0 this season with a complete game shutout of the Rangers on Saturday.
Analysis: Greinke hasn't allowed a run in 20 innings pitched this season. He struck out a season-high 10 on Saturday, giving up just seven hits and walking none.
Apr. 14 1:55 PM PT2:55 PM MT3:55 PM CT4:55 PM ET9:55 PM GMT5:55 AM 北京时间-Greinke has not allowed a run in 25 innings.
Analysis: Greinke wiggled out of trouble for five scoreless innings before departing after 104 pitches as the Kansas City Royals held on to defeat the Cleveland Indians 4-2 on Monday night. He struck out nine, two shy of his career high, walked two and gave up six hits. Greinke has thrown 11 scoreless innings this season in winning his first two starts and has not allowed a run since the sixth inning on Sept. 13 at Cleveland.
