Johnson, Diamondbacks close out season

Sep 28, 2008 - 7:35 AM Colorado (74-87) at Arizona (81-80), 4:10 p.m. EDT

PHOENIX (Ticker) -- Randy Johnson will be on the mound - possibly for the last time - on Sunday when the Arizona Diamondbacks face the Colorado Rockies.

The 45-year-old lefthander has enjoyed a solid bounce-back season after injuries cut short his 2007 campaign.

Johnson (10-10, 4.11 ERA) has not announced whether he would return next year, but the future Hall-of-Famer is six wins shy of 300 for his career.

In his last outing, Johnson gave up five runs over six innings in a loss to St. Louis on Tuesday. He has not won since August 12.

Colorado will counter with 24-year-old Ubaldo Jimenez (12-12, 4.13), who is ending the season on a strong note.

The righthander has won three of his last four starts, including Tuesday when he allowed three runs in six frames against San Francisco.

Arizona has won 14 of 17 meetings with Colorado.
