KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Major League Baseball Players Association voted Kansas City Royals pitcher Zack Greinke as its American League Pitcher of the Year. It's the third post-season honor for the Royals ace, whose 2.16 earned run average was the best in baseball.

Greinke finished the 2009 season with a 16-8 record and was second in the American League with 242 strikeouts. He had six complete games and three shutouts, both second in the majors behind Toronto's Roy Halladay. Adam Wainwright of the St. Louis Cardinals received the honor as the National League's best pitcher. Wainwright led National League with 19 wins, finishing 19-8 in 34 starts.
