RHP Micah Owings made his sixth quality start in eight outings with six shutout innings in a 4-3 victory over Colorado on Wednesday. How much do the D-backs like his bat? Although Owings was done on the mound after throwing 100 pitches, he batted with two outs and no one on in the last of the sixth inning. He appeared to beat out a grounder to third base but was called out on a close play at first base, ending his streak of consecutive games of reaching base via hit or walk in games he started at five.
