It also raised a few question marks for the rest of the season … but we’ll tackle those another day. Trevor Story rocked him for a two-run homer in the first inning, which was followed by solo homers off the bats of D.J. LeMahieu and Ryan Raburn in the third and seventh innings, respectively. It was not a good day for Brewers pitcher Ariel Pena, who allowed all three shots.

They left talking about Colorado rookie shortstop Trevor Story and his two-homer major league debut. A three-run homer. No matter where he pitched this season, Greinke would likely have a hard time replicating his 1.66 ERA from 2015.
The D-backs spent a lot of money on these guys (especially Greinke) and are obviously hoping these performances will be the exception to the rule this season.
“I thought Patrick threw the ball well”, Arizona manager Chip Hale said.
On Tuesday, their pitching woes continued, but it was the offense that stole the show. Greinke and Miller’s previous homes, Dodger Stadium and Turner Field, are decidedly more forgiving.

Chatwood last start was in the same Phoenix ballpark on April 29, 2014.
Ortiz’s 505th career homer moved him past Eddie Murray into 26th place on the career list and triggered a four-run sixth for the Red Sox, who overcame 4-0 and 5-2 deficits.
In game one of the 2016 campaign last night, the Rocks ruined vaunted free-agent-pitcher signee Zack Greinke’s debut for Arizona, clubbing the Diamondbacks 10-5.
Story’s four home runs came off a pair of 92 miles per hour fastballs, a changeup and a slider. I’m in kind of a weird thing right now.

For the Diamondbacks, they’ll simply move on to the weekend ahead. Just frustrating. Just a couple of pitches These three games they’ve been really hot, the whole team. “My main focus is driving in runs and helping the teams win”. He was acquired in a winter trade that sent Corey Dickerson to Tampa Bay.Ahmed had two hits in each game of the series.
