Steelers backup quarterback Charlie Batch played just one series against the Cardinals, but he said it was good "to get that first hit out of the way."

Batch, who missed all of last season with a broken collarbone, took a hard shot after one of the two passes he attempted against the Cardinals.

He said he thought he would play more, but starter Ben Roethlisberger played two series, while No. 3 quarterback Dennis Dixon took the majority of the rest of the snaps.

"Ben wasn't supposed to go as long as he did," Batch said. "My time is based off of what the first-team offense does. In a perfect world, starters get seven to 10 plays, but if the coach doesn't like what he sees, they stay out there."

Don't count on seeing a lot of Ben Roethlisberger in preseason. The team plans to get a good look at Dennis Dixon, the Oregon quarterback who dropped to the fifth round in the 2008 draft because of an ACL injury.

Keep an eye on Shaun Mcdonald and not just because the seventh-year veteran is the only Steelers wide receiver aside from Hines Ward and Santonio Holmes with a track record in the NFL.

McDonald made a spectacular, one-handed grab of a Dennis Dixon pass Saturday afternoon, and he said he has only dropped one pass during training camp.

"They don't too often," McDonald said of dropped balls, "and I think that's what keeps me in this league, so, hopefully, I keep doing it."

McDonald, who signed with the Steelers in May, is just two years from a near 1,000-yard receiving season in Detroit. In addition to wide receiver, the seventh-year wide receiver will also get a look from the Steelers as a punt returner.

Steelers QB Charlie Batch has proven to be as resilient as he is reliable, and with training camp less than a week old, it is clear that the No. 2 spot at quarterback behind starter Ben Roethlisberger is his to lose.

Or, as OC Bruce Arians said earlier this week when asked if Batch is in competition with second-year man Dennis Dixon, "It's Charlie's, and Dennis is growing."

The two got their share of work Wednesday afternoon — coach Mike Tomlin opted to rest Roethlisberger — for different reasons.

Batch is still knocking the rust off after missing the 2008 season, while Dixon needs all of the repetitions he can get after attempting just one pass his rookie season.
