"Right-hander Aaron Harang did not have a good outing Tuesday.

He allowed three runs on four hits in 11/3 innings against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Goodyear Stadium. Harang was supposed to go three innings.

"I felt like I throwing some good pitches early on," Harang said. "... I was falling away. I'd get ahead and miss up and pull off a slider and bury it too much. It's nothing to be concerned about."

Harang, coming off a 6-14 season, is in the process of reworking his mechanics.

"Overall I'm happy with it," he said. "But it has to do with arm slot. I need some fine-tuning. It was the way I pitched so long. Then to change it is not going to work overnight. I still got some stuff to work on, but that's what spring in for."

"The ball felt like it was coming out free and easy. It's still long spring. The biggest thing is building up the pitch count."

The mechanical change has to do with Harang's lower half.

"I'm loading up a little longer and really striding out to the plate. I increased my stride six or seven inches. I didn't have the flexibility in my hips."

The temperature was 58 and was windy and overcast at the start.

"I felt like I was pitching in Cincinnati," Harang said."
