Heath Bell Is A Winner

What can you say about Heath Bell?

In his own words, he didn't have "it" last night, but despite the lack of stuff, he still managed to pull off his 29th consecutive save. What really impressed me, however, was Heath's at bat in the top of the 9th. He worked the count full with the bases loaded, then hit a scorching liner that unfortunately went right to Seth Smith in right field. But the way he battled at the plate while the entire Padres team laughed and cheered him on from the top step of the dugout, was absolutely outstanding.

Well done, Heath. Another notch on the save belt for you. Another win for the Padres.
