PHOENIX (AP) Zack Greinke threw a three-hitter and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Tampa Bay Rays 5-0 on Tuesday night.

Greinke (8-3) struck out two and walked two in his fifth career shutout and first since July 13, 2013, against Colorado at Dodger Stadium. Greinke faced only four hitters over the minimum and didn't allow a runner to get into scoring position.

Greinke's complete game was his first since June 13 of last season at San Diego, also for Los Angeles. He has won his last five starts.

Paul Goldschmidt and Jake Lamb homered and drove in all five runs for the Diamondbacks, who have won two of three.
