Micah Owings returned to the win column as a starter as he lasted five innings in the Diamondbacks 6-3 win over the Rockies. Owings walked one and struck out three, solving the walk problems that plagued him the last two seasons. Nice to see him back, and I hope he starts hitting as well.

Kelly Johnson‘s power is coming back as his home run tonight gives him three in his last six games.

The Diamondbacks are now just 1 1/2 games behind the Giants in the NL West.
