LOS ANGELES -- When he walked into the D-backs' clubhouse on Sunday after being recalled from Triple-A Reno, Chris Owings was greeted with smiles and hugs.
"It's good to be back," Owings said. "The team has been playing well, so it's fun to be back, especially in the mix of a playoff race."
It's been a difficult season for Owings, who was moved around to different positions -- all three outfield spots, second base and third base -- and was never able to get on track offensively.
