best colon effective fastball helps high lay throwing
The best thing about Colon is you know his fastball is coming, but you still can't lay off the high pitch. He's effective with that and that helps make him a winner. When he's locating and throwing strikes, he has a lot of success.

It's an amazing job this kid did over the last year and a half, ... This kid came in with a lot of problems, mechanics and keeping his pitches down. I always say Contreras got the best arm on my staff. There's not a doubt about it. It was a matter of time when he got more confidence and he was throwing more strikes.

guys hits hitting nine nobody sudden three time tonight walk
When we were really struggling, you didn't see guys get two hits in a game. Any time someone got one hit, one walk -- nobody could put it together. Tonight when we were hitting the ball, one guy got three hits, one had two RBIs, one had two hits, all of a sudden you don't need nine guys to get a hit -- just two or three to get a hit at the right time.

We're going to continue to look around and see what happens.
