Four?
The Phillies go for the four-game sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers today at 3:05, Freddy Garcia vs. Ben Sheets. I doubt the Phillies can close out with a fourth consecutive win, so I'm assuming this game will go to the Brew crew. The Phillies are surging back into the race, having won six of their last seven games. Friday the Phillies square-off with the Blue Jays in what promises to be a tough series.
Last night's game was a spectacular showcase of Cole Hamels talents. His masterful control over his pitches and his confidence were on full display last night as he utterly blanked the Brewers for six whole innings. In the end Hamels settled for two hits and a walk in eight innings. He had eleven strikeouts to just one walk. So far this season he has seventy strikeouts. If he keeps up his current pace and hurls 200-230 innings, Hamels will have 220-260 strikeouts this season. Not too shabby at all.
But we are getting ahead of ourselves. Let's just concentrate on the team getting to 21-20 ...
