Big inning by Spurling as well and a nicely managed game by Ned.

Agreed. Hardy needed a wake up call. Linebrink has been amazing. Great trade by Melvin.

Ned gets well deserved crap for bad decision, not tonight.

He's had it all year in the majors. Even with a .212 BA his OBP was .330 which means he's drawing his fair share of walks.

I think it was more of a confidence thing. Hopefully he gains more confidence after this game.

Scoring the winning run can do a lot for a guys confidence.

This may have gotten the players over that Sunday game.

Great job guys. :clap:

Rickie Weeks with a Wonderful game and Hart with a great clutch hit. Hall had the double but he still is sucking the joint up. Prince with the homer, HARDY FINALLY GOT A HOMER. Great move by Ned to put him in the 8th spot. Now all we have to do is KEEP THIS UP!!

you're right, even through his slump he was still drawing a fair number of walks. but four in one game, my gosh--he's using his eyes and fighting off pitches.

Well, I had no confidence in this team on the road, and I still don't have much, but a good win to pull out. Now keep them coming, please.
