Zack Greinke will be the starting pitcher for the National League. The manager of the NL team said the following about the race for starting pitcher:

“We had some great starters who are candidates, but the numbers he’s putting up are really, really unbelievable,” NL manager Bruce Bochy said.

Greinke was the 2009 CY Young Award winner and will be appearing in his third All-Star game. ESPN.com reports the following on the Dodgers’ pitcher:

“Greinke is 8-2 with a major league-best 1.39 ERA for the first-place Dodgers and has not allowed an earned run in his last five starts, a span of 35 2/3 innings. He has allowed more than three runs in a start just once this season and has gone no fewer than six full innings in each of his 18 starts.”
