Mostly against the Rockies, the Padres, the Nats, and the Giants. Yeah, the Cards and the Braves were thrown in there, but most of their success came against teams that have either been terrible all season, or the Giants who have been playing like crap for a while now. Hard to get too optimistic about it.

That said, there does seem to have been a pretty noticeable turn around since Dave Hansen took over as batting coach. Also, their improvement coincided with that game where James Loney warmed up as an emergency reliever and then got like 4 RBI in the game. I seriously expected to start seeing him warming up in the bullpen every game after that.
