Greinke, Diamondbacks look to extend Padres' skid

SAN DIEGO -- The Arizona Diamondbacks' Zack Greinke will take the mound against the San Diego Padres on Wednesday night. It is safe to say the hype machine is cranked down a few notches for this Greinke start.

The right-hander will look to rebound against Jhoulys Chacin, a foe with lesser credentials than Greinke's last opponent, the Los Angeles Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw.

Greinke, the other half of the powerful 1-2 punch atop the Dodgers' rotation for three years, scuffled against his former team on Friday.
