Diamondbacks seek fourth straight win

Jun 18, 2007 - 1:42 PM Tampa Bay (30-37) at Arizona (40-30) 9:40 pm EDT

PHOENIX (Ticker) -- The Arizona Diamondbacks will try to push their winning streak to four straight games when they open three-game series against the Tampa Bay Devil Rays on Sunday.

The Diamondbacks are coming off their weekend series sweep of the Baltimore Orioles, including Sunday's 6-4 victory.

Arizona's Livan Hernandez (5-4, 4.20 ERA) will try to rebound from a dismal effort in his last trip to the mound. He was tagged for seven runs and nine hits in a season-tying low four innings of a 7-2 loss to the New York Yankees.

The Cuban righthander is 2-1 with a 5.18 ERA in five career starts when facing the Devil Rays.

Tampa Bay sends Edwin Jackson (0-8, 8.20) to the hill. Jackson once again is coming off a loss, surrendering five runs and five hits while recording just one out in a 9-0 setback to San Diego on Wednesday.

The 23-year-old righthander hopes to finally get over the hump as Devil Rays manager Joe Maddon is close to taking him out of the rotation or possibly sending him back to the minors.

Jonny Gomes homered twice in Sunday's interleague weekend series finale as Tampa Bay snapped a four-game slide with a 7-4 triumph at Colorado.
