TUESDAY QUICK HITS

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES @ HOUSTON ASTROS

The Phillies took on another former pitcher in Houston in game two of their series. They were looking to do better than game one when Brett Meyers shut them down 5-1 in the series opener.

 

Tonight it was Cole Hamels on the mound for the Phillies
and J.A. Happ for the Astros. The Phillies actually did better today scoring all of two runs in the 5-2 loss. Yes the Phillies lose again, to the team that has the worse record in all of major league baseball.

 

The Phillies are on a losing streak, one that they have not seen since June 4th when they lost four games in a row. They are now at three and it will be up to the entire team to get a win in Houston on Wednesday and stop the madness! Ok I’m feeling better now, just not use to seeing my Phillies lose!

Cole Hamels is now 14-8 after today’s loss. He went five innings and allowed five runs on nine hits with one walk and six K’s.

 J.A. Happ is now 6-15 after today’s win. Happ went six innings allowing one run on just four hits, walked four and had four K’s.

The Phillies runs came on two solo shot home runs by Hunter Pence and Carlos Ruiz. Clint Barmes went two for four for the Astros, with three RBI on his eleventh homer of the season. Barmes hit the three run shot off of Hamels in the fourth inning.

The Phillies will look for a win on Wednesday afternoon with Roy Halladay on the mound. Must salvage one, then come home for a ten game homestand.

Philadelphia is now 11-5 in the "Final 33" still six from 100 wins with seventeen games still to play. My money will be on the Phillies to stop the madness in game three with Roy on the mound and some upset Philadelphia players!
