D-Backs' Ray gets Game 2 start vs. Dodgers
Mark J. Rebilas / USA TODAY Sports
The Arizona Diamondbacks have finally solidified their starting rotation for the rest of the NLDS.
Left-hander Robbie Ray will start Game 2 against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday night. Ray pitched 2 1/3 innings in relief of Zack Greinke during the Diamondbacks' Wild Card Game, allowing one run on two hits. Greinke, the Diamondbacks' ace during the season, will start Game 3.
Ray broke out in a big way in 2017, going 15-5 with a 2.89 ERA and 12.11 K/9 over 28 starts. He should be available to start Game 5 if the series requires it.
