Zack Greinke found his way into and out of trouble tonight against an Indians team that has only won a single game in its first week of the 2009 season. The Royals are up 4-0 in the 8th inning as they go for their 4th win to put them above .500. Greinke gave up 6 hits and 2 walks in 5 innings, but his 9 strikeouts on the night helped him out of difficult situations time and again. He was also helped out by a homer from Mike Jacobs. Jamey Wright has pitched 2 scoreless innings in relief.

***Update***
Royals win 4-2.
