Owings gets second major league start for Diamondbacks

Apr 11, 2007 - 2:17 PM Cincinnati (4-4) at Arizona (7-2) 9:40 pm EDT

PHOENIX (Ticker) -- The Arizona Diamondbacks are building around young talent. Micah Owings is part of the plan.

Owings takes the mound for the Diamondbacks in the second game of a three-game series against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday.

Owings (1-0, 0.00 ERA), Arizona's 2006 minor league pitcher of the year, allowed just one hit and struck out six in five scoreless innings last Thursday at Washington.

The 24-year-old righthander was expected to start the season in the minors, but was put in the rotation to fill in for Randy Johnson, who continues to recover from back surgery.

The Reds will counter with Matt Belisle. The 26-year-old righthander was converted to a starter this season after working out of the bullpen the last two years.

Belisle (1-0, 1.50) earned a win in his first start, surrendering one run and four hits in six innings last Friday against Pittsburgh.

The Diamondbacks took the first game of the series, 5-4, on Tuesday as Scott Hairston doubled home the winning run in the 11th inning.
