The Royals begin their second road trip of the year by heading out west to face the Seattle Mariners in a 9:10 start. Zack Greinke (2-0, .060 ERA) looks to continue his hot start as he faces off against Jared Washburn (1-1, 3.00 ERA).
Update: DeJesus, out since game 1 against Detroit makes his return to the line-up tonight.
Box Score
Zack Greinke pitched another gem of a game, this time a complete game in which he allowed only 1 run on 5 hits. Greinke needed 107 pitches to mow down a Seattle team that has been struggling offensively, the only run scored on a Ichiro fielders choice. Washburn on the other hand struggled against the right handed bats of the Royals in allowing 3 runs in 6 innings.
The offense got off to a strong start in the second when Billy Butler extended his hitting streak to 13 by connecting for his first home run of the season, that was followed by a double from Guillen and an eventual Olivo home-run, also his first. The Royals added single runs in the 7th and 8th.
