Nick Hundley lifts Colorado Rockies to 6-5 win over Philadelphia Phillies

Nick Hundley's go-ahead home run in the eighth inning took Boone Logan off the hook and made Chad Bettis' strong start more meaningful.

Colorado Rockies catcher Nick Hundley had a lot to say recently about his team's struggles.

"We can't just sit here and hope and wish and think it's OK," Hundley told Nick Groke of The Denver Post on Monday. "We have to play better as a team, all the way around — offensively, defensively, situationally, starters, bullpen. We have to play better — to a man."

Several of those men stepped up on Wednesday, but none more so than Hundley, who delivered a go-ahead home run in the bottom of the eighth inning to lift the Rockies to a 6-5 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday.
