Chris Owings will make his first MLB start on Friday, starting at shortstop and hitting seventh against the Giants.
The 22-year-old has gone 0-for-2 as a pinch-hitter since joining the team on Tuesday. It will be interesting to see how he fares at the big league level after terrorizing the Pacific Coast League to the tune of .330/.359/.482 with 12 homers, 81 RBI and 20 stolen bases en route to winning their Rookie of the Year honors. With a solid September, he can position himself to earn a regular role with the D'Backs in 2014.
