Kim gets first start of season vs. former team

Apr 15, 2007 - 4:16 PM Colorado (5-6) at Arizona (8-4) 4:40 pm EDT

PHOENIX (Ticker) -- Byung-Hyun Kim will make his first start of the season and it will come against his former team when the Colorado Rockies visit the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday.

Kim (1-1, 6.00 ERA), who played for the Arizona Diamondbacks for four seasons, will face Doug Davis in the rubber game of their weekend series.

The righthanded submarine pitcher, who has been working out of the bullpen, lost out on the fifth spot in Colorado's rotation in spring training. But on Sunday he gets a chance to start in place of the injured Rodrigo Lopez.

Kim compiled an 8-12 record with a 5.57 ERA in 27 starts with the Rockies last season.

Orlando Hudson helped Arizona snap a two-game losing streak by driving in the winning run with a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning of Saturday's 5-4 victory.

Davis (0-1, 1.64) is looking for his first win in an Arizona uniform. The lefthander was acquired from Milwaukee as part of a six-player deal.

In his last start, Davis allowed two runs and five hits in six innings but did not get a decision in a 3-2 victory over Cincinnati on Monday.

Arizona has won seven of its last nine games.
