He yielded just three hits, all in the first inning, while striking out three and walking two.The Phillies broke out to a 2-0 lead in the first inning on RBI singles by first baseman Ryan Howard and right fielder Domonic Brown.

The Marlins ace is only is his third start back from Tommy John surgery, but he’s already 2-0 with 15 strikeouts in 13 innings and a sparkling 2.08 ERA and 1.00 WHIP.

The Phillies have heavily scouted the Red Sox system, according to Edes.

With the trade deadline approaching it was thought that Hamels would be on the move soon but since he is not the only quality starting pitcher on the market it could force the Phillies to wait.

Francoeur’s two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning lifted Philadelphia to an 8-7 victory over the Miami Marlins on Sunday. Ramos in the ninth inning as the Phillies completed a three-game sweep of the Marlins. It didn’t go well, as Hamels only lasted three innings against a hampered Marlins team that has been playing without Giancarlo Stanton and Dee Gordon.

“This is my third time as an interim manager”, he said, “and it’s not fun”.

“It’s uncharacteristic of us”, Marlins manager Dan Jennings said of the loose defensive play. Though a hamstring tweak caused him to miss a start last month, there does not seem to be much external indication that this is an injury-related case.

Adeiny Hechavarria doubled to score Yelich and scored on a Gillespie base hit to forge a 5-5 tie and start a buzz throughout Citizens Bank Park: What’s up with Hamels? That proved to be it for Hamels, who didn’t come out for the fourth.

“He looks like a pitcher”, Mackanin said. It might have a little bit, but that’s no excuse. All he did when he was up in the majors earlier was mash and I think he could do the same now. Hamels has been seen as a…

“Their team had to face the same elements”, Hamels said of pitching with a heat index that reached triple digits. How could it be with a team caught between eras that had played with a disinterest that could have been predicted once the team president, Pat Gillick, declared it unfit to compete for a championship before it had played one game? “It was unhealthy out there”, he said.
