Micah Owings threw six shutout innings and Brandon Lyon earned his 10th straight save as the Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the Colorado Rockies 4-3 on Wednesday night. Arizona's latest victory came while Owings (5-1) limited the Rockies to five hits in six innings, with two walks and five strikeouts. Owings had a 4-0 lead when he left but had to sweat out the victory when the normally reliable Arizona bullpen faltered. (Updated 05/15/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Owings won for the first time in four starts. He has allowed just three earned runs over his last 13 innings (2.08 ERA) after allowing 11 earned runs in his previous 10 2/3 innings (9.28 ERA). Talk about getting back on track. Owings has been pretty good this season for the NL West leading Diamondbacks. Consider him more of a No. 4 or No. 5 Fantasy SP in mixed leagues. His next scheduled start is for Tuesday against the Marlins. He is on track to be a two-start pitcher Fantasy Week 8 (May 19-25) with his second start coming against the Braves. Both starts are on the road where Owings is 2-0 with a 3.57 ERA. (Updated 05/15/2008).
