PHOENIX -- The Diamondbacks understand what they are up against entering the
second half of the season, and their comeback victory against San Francisco on
Saturday was a step in the right direction.

inning put the finishing touches on a four-run comeback for an exhilarating 6-5
victory, snapping a six-game losing streak.As for something to build on as the
teams prepare for the final game of a three-game homestand, time will tell.I
hope so, said Arizona first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, who made a lunging stop
with a runner on first base to preserve reliever Jake Barretts first major
league victory and Brad Zieglers 17th save for the final out Saturday.Youd like
to say yes, but who knows if you can. You show up tomorrow and it is zero-zero
and it doesnt really matter that much. We need the win, just because we know how
far back we are from San Fran and even in the wild card, so any win is going to
be big. Hopefully the momentum carries over, but I know they are not going to be
fazed by it.They are fine coming off losses, and it is not like if we would have
lost we would have showed up and been hanging our heads tomorrow. Hopefully we
can win the series.The D-backs (37-46) will send left-hander Robbie Ray against
Giants right-hander Albert Suarez in the finale of the three-game series at
Chase Field on Sunday.Arizonas victory Saturday was the first by the home team
in the first 10 games of the season series. The Diamondbacks swept a four-game
series at AT&T Park on April 18-21 before the Giants swept a four-gamer
series at Chase Field on May 12-15. The Giants won the opener of this series
Friday, coming back from two three-run deficits in a 5-4 victory.That is one we
let get away, San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said Saturday.Castillo has
homered in two consecutive games and has hit four of his 10 homers against the
Giants this season. He had seven in his first 21 games before going 28 games
without one, connecting again June 17.Asked if his homers come in bunches,
Castillo drew chuckles when he said, Thats what it looks like. Ive been feeling
good lately. I know I went through a tough moment. I dont worry about my
hitting. I know I can hit a little bit. Just time, and its going to come.Arizona
third baseman Jake Lamb had two hits and a walk Saturday and is close to
becoming the fourth player (five occurrences) in franchise history to have 20
doubles and 20 homers before the All-Star break. Lamb hit his 19th double
Saturday and has 18 homers after hitting one in each of the three previous
games. Only Paul Goldschmidt (twice), Matt Williams and Jay Bell have done
it.Ray (4-7) threw six shutout innings for his first victory of the season at
San Francisco on April 19, and he is 1-0 with a 1.64 ERA in two career starts
against the Giants. He averages 10.42 strikeouts per nine innings, seventh
highest among NL starters and third highest among left-handers.Suarez (3-1) will
make his sixth start Sunday and also has made six relief appearances. He took
Matt Cains spot in the starting rotation when Cain went out with a right
hamstring strain. He has a 4.39 ERA in five starts and will gave the
Diamondbacks for the first time.

State Warriors coach Mark Jackson asked his players a simple question during
Fridays morning shootaround: How many of them had ever been on a team 14 games
over . PITTSBURGH -- After the Steelers second straight season with injuries to
key players, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is concerned about the teams
physical practices affecting the health of players.Roethlisberger said he
understands the Steelers desire for a physical edge on Sundays, but he said he
feels compelled to stand up for his offensive linemen, running backs and others
taking a pounding during an NFL season, particularly at training camp. The
Steelers will likely play against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday without three of
their most talented defensive players: linemen Cam Heyward (hamstring),
linebacker Ryan Shazier (knee) and outside linebacker Bud Dupree (injured
reserve, sports hernia).When youre doing it over and over and the guys shoulders
are getting sore and knees start getting sore and hips and hamstrings and quads
and things, and then they re-occur, youve got to maybe take a look at what youre
doing,?Roethlisberger said.We pride ourselves as the Pittsburgh Steelers being a
physical football team, so its a fine line you have to walk.After Wednesdays
practice, coach Mike Tomlin said the balance between physicality and protecting
players is a conversation we continually have. The team will evaluate this issue
and others at the end of the season.Were a transparent group. Opinions are
valued, said Tomlin of Roethlisbergers comments. We dont care where good ideas
come from. Were just trying to win football games. Bens been around here long
enough to have an opinion and also express it.Roethlisberger said on his weekly
appearance with 93.7 The Fan that physical practices might be taking a toll on
the roster. He referenced the joint practices with the Detroit Lions in August,
when Detroit was undergoing its first live hitting session while the Steellers
had been hitting for two weeks.

LeVeon Bell, Roethlisberger and center Maurkice Pouncey were among offensive
players sidelined by injuries. Asked Wednesday what should change,
Roethlisberger said he didnt know.Im not the coach or the owners or the league
or the office, Roethlisberger said. Im just a player.All NFL teams are limited
to 14 padded practices per regular season, but the Steelers are known to have
one of the most physical training camps in the league.Roethlisberger got several
rest days during camp, and the Steelers sometimes give key veterans off days
during the season. Roethlisberger said the Steelers sometimes, not always reduce
hitting in-season.You see those pads on top of the locker being worn all year
long, so like I said, for me, I cant complain too much because Im not the one
getting hit, but I will stand up for the big boys, Roethlisberger said.Tomlin
has said in the past that physical practices are a team-building requirement for
his team, especially while trying to reduce a 90-man roster to 53 during
camp.The Steelers have listed 25 different players as out for a game this year,
which is eight more than the next-closest teams, the Colts and Browns (17),
according to ESPN Stats and Info.Guard Ramon Foster said his recent chest injury
came from in-game action, but he understands his quarterbacks perspective. The
starting offensive line takes a lot of the training camp reps while in full
pads.Im glad he spoke out on it, Foster said. If he gets us less days in pads,
Im OK with that, too. We would have to see whats the correlation next year if we
took the pads off more.
