Feeling more comfortable at the plate as he earns more Major League at-bats, Gardner has begun to face big league pitchers with a more confident approach.

They will look to keep the momentum rolling when Joba Chamberlain takes the mound on Saturday afternoon.

Yet it was also very much different.

They play, they argue, they fight -- that's to be expected from two heated rivals. But at the rivalry's core, there is a deep-rooted respect.
