Cactus League record: 13-10-2. Change on 2016: -6.
Zack Greinke got the start for the Diamondbacks, his penultimate outing before Opening Day at Chase, and... wasn’t bad. He did seem to flag after becoming the first Arizona pitcher to go out into the sixth inning, allowing a lead-off double followed by a walk. That was the end of Greinke’s day, and Brian Matusz allowed one inherited runner to score, leaving Zack possessing a line of three runs on six hits and two walks with four strikeouts, having thrown 83 pitches.
