ATLANTA -- Management of the Colorado Rockies and Atlanta Braves are both answering questions about outfielders who are not currently on the active roster.The Rockies are trying to determine when Gerardo Parra will be able to return from a high ankle sprain thats kept him on the disabled list since June 15. The Braves are trying to decide what to do with Hector Olivera, who is serving an 82-game suspension for violation of the leagues domestic violence policy.The two clubs will play the second of a three-game series on Saturday. Atlanta will send right-hander Mike Foltynewicz (3-3, 3.67) against Colorado right-hander Chad Bettis (7-6, 5.65).Parra may be close to returning from the disabled list, where hes been since June 15 with a high left ankle sprain. Parra was batting .263 with five homers and 27 RBI in 63 games when he was injured. His return come be soon.Manager Walt Weiss said, He was running around here yesterday and looked pretty good. Ran the bases. I dont have anything as far as a rehab assignment or anything like that, but hes moving around pretty good and progressing nicely.He does some things for you. He provides Gold Glove caliber defense, a tough out, hes productive, lot of extra-base hits, lot of doubles ... another threat all the way around.Atlanta sent Olivera to its Gulf Coast League team to begin a rehab stint. He is expected to be promoted to the Triple-A Gwinnett affiliate next week. The club has not decided whether Olivera will be given another opportunity in the major leagues or be released, like the Rockies did earlier this summer in a similar situation with shortstop Jose Reyes. Olivera is eligible to return to the major leagues on Aug. 2.With all thats gone on with this, as disappointing as its been, I think Hector has used this time productively, said John Hart, Atlantas president of baseball operations. Weve been comfortable, I think, with the steps hes taken, certainly off the field, which has been very important to us and obviously the work hes put in on the field.I think hes making an honest effort to try and put himself back and sort of resurrect his career. Other than that, well just follow it out, stay connected going forward. But we dont have any time frame or timetable. Theres a lot of things we can do come Aug. 2.The pitching matchup for Saturday features who guys who have been pitching well.Foltynewicz is coming off the best start of his career, seven shutout innings with 10 strikeouts in a win against the White Sox. He has made three career appearances, one start, against the Rockies, going 0-1 with a 1.29 ERA.Bettis is 3-1 with a 5.79 ERA over his last six starts, of which Colorado has won five. He beat the Phillies in his last start, allowing two runs in 6 2/3 innings. Bettis is 2-1 with a 6.35 ERA in four games, three starts, in his career against Atlanta. He was 2-0 against the Braves in 2015.Atlanta will likely have to go without closer Arodys Vizcaino, who suffered a possible oblique strain on Friday night.

HALLE, Germany -- Top-seeded Roger Federer came from behind to beat defending champion Tommy Haas 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 and reach the Gerry Weber Open final on Saturday. Federer lost last years final to the German veteran but he is on course for his first title -- in his second final -- of the year. Federer will play Mikhail Youzhny in Sundays final. Youzhny upset second-seeded Richard Gasquet 6-3, 6-2 in less than hour. "Its a good win for me, especially after losing the first set," Federer said. "I felt I played well from start to finish, even in the first set." Federer is seeking his sixth title on grass in Halle, his favourite warm-up for Wimbledon. Four of Federers seven Wimbledon titles have come after triumphs in Halle. While Federer fired 15 aces, Haas finished with nine double-faults. Two consecutive ones at the end of the third game of the final set gave Federer the decisive edge. "This was my best serving by far this week," Federer said. Youzhny broke serve for a 2-0 lead and never looked behind. Ha raced to 4-0 in the second and wrapped it with a volley winner. Youzhny is seeking to become the first Russian winner in Halle since Yevgeny Kafelnikovs last of three titles in 2002, the year before Federer began his run of five. Federer has beaten Youzhny in all of their previous 14 matches, including the semifinals in Halle and the quarterfinals of Wimbledon last year. "A new match is like a new life, and you never know," Youzhnyy said.dddddddddddd Although he owns five titles in Halle, where a street going past the stadium is called the Roger-Federer-Allee, the 31-year-old Swiss last won here in 2008. "Its a big final for me, after that Ill start thinking about Wimbledon," Federer said. Federer, ranked No. 3 in the world, will be the defending champion in Wimbledon and seeking to add to his record 17 Grand Slam titles. Federer dropped his serve in the sixth game, hitting a forehand error after being passed by Haas on the previous point. "Clearly, I wasnt sure how well I was really playing until today," said Federer, who blanked Mischa Zverev 6-0, 6-0 in Fridays quarterfinal and had not been challenged at the tournament. "When you are a set down, one break and that could be the end for you. Fortunately, I was able to turn it around." Haas lost his first service game of the second set and would never earn a break point again on Federers serve. "On the big points, Roger showed again what qualities he has," Haas said. "I think I still played well and gave my best." Haas is 3-11 against Federer throughout his career. The semifinal featured two men over 30. The 35-year-old Haas, the oldest player in the top 100, is enjoying his second spring and is ranked No. 11. Haas was No. 2 in the world in 2002. Hip surgery in 2010 left him No. 896, before he started climbing again. Unlike Federer, he already has a title this year, in Munich. ' ' '
