Well, I think the title of this post explains it all. Tonight's game was headed by another outstanding peformance by John Hudgins, who pitched seven scoreless innings, striking out six and walking one. He and Geoff Jones, who earned his first save, combined for the 2-hitter. The BayBears have won three straight series against three difficult teams. Mobile has won 5 of 6 and 10 0f their last 14. What has made the difference? Good pitching and clutch hitting. Manager Gary Jones has said it time and time again that clutch hits are necessary to success. Exhibit A: Juan Ciriaco's 9th inning game winning RBI (see "On A Roll?"). John Hudgins may have replaced Cesar Carrillo as Mobile's 1-2 punch on the mound (along with Jared Wells). Speaking of Carrillo, he has been placed on the DL in Triple-A Portland with a strained right forearm. I think a get well card is in order.
