A good article from the Denver Post about the success of the Rockies under Clint Hurdle. The most impressive thing is that the team seems to be very mature about the whole thing. Here’s a quote from Juan Pierre:

“We are heading in the right direction. But we aren’t going to get overjoyed,” center fielder Juan Pierre said. “Part of winning is knowing how to deal with it. We haven’t accomplished anything yet.”

Pierre had scored 10 runs in his first 22 games, 26 in 28 games since Hurdle took over.
The Rockies are 20-8 under Hurdle. What’s most impressive is that the team has a 2.79 ERA at home since he’s taken over. A Rockies team that can pitch is going to be hard to beat. Maybe those properly stored baseballs are working.
