    Well done Hawkins! A very nice series win. If Wandy can be what he's been at home, a sweep is very likely.

    Great win tonight.....really nice to get a victory like that considering how many close losses we've had recently. Finally, some clutch hitting late in the game.

    One reason I was optimistic about the season is I thought the Astros starting pitching would be better than most expected (or feared). Yes, names like Ortiz and Hampton aren't sexy but I figured they could give us 5-6 quality innings on a consistent basis. With that in mind, the "bridge innings", the 7th and 8th become HUGE. That has been a problem as we've been outscored 12-6 in the 7th inning so far (4-4 in the 8th). How the middle relief does in attempting to get the game to Valverde will play a large role into how this team does.

    Hawk lookin' good for the most part to start the year... nice to know he's there as another closer option.

    Agreed about the middle relief, T Rex... Hawkins was great last year and looks good so far... Sampson can eat up innings... I also think Geary will bounce back.

    i agree on Geary. He was solid in Philly, but overworked.. I expect a bounce back

    Good win. I assumed we lost after I saw the dodgers take the lead in the late innings. Ot wasn't until just now when I saw the sportscenter highlights that I found out we actually won.
