Zack Greinke (12-7) will attempt to win his first game of August when the Los Angeles Dodgers take on Mike Fiers (0-1) and the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday night.

Zack Greinke had a pretty rough start against the Los Angeles Angels on Monday and ended up suffering his seventh loss of the season. He pitched seven innings in that game and allowed five runs (three earned) on six base hits while walking no one and striking out five. He currently owns a 2.71 ERA and he has struck out 158 batters in 146.1 innings of work.

Lyle Overbay should find himself in the Brewers' lineup against Greinke because he is 9-for-26 against him with a double, three home runs and eight RBI. Aramis Ramirez is just 2-for-11 against him with a walk and four strikeouts.

In his last start for the Brewers, Mike Fiers ended up losing his first game of the year when he was beaten by the Washington Nationals. He allowed two runs on four hits in four innings that day, while walking no one and striking out four. He has pitched seven total innings in the majors this season and has a 2.57 ERA.

Dodgers outfielder Andre Ethier has three hits four at-bats against Fiers in his career with a double and an RBI. Matt Kemp is 0-for-4 against him with no walks and one strikeout.
