| Washington Nationals, thy name is suckass. The streaking Phillies win their 7th straight, sweeping the Nats and sending them into a tie with the Detroit Tigers for baseball's worst record. The Phils shut out the Nats for the second straight day, with Cole Hamels going the distance in a less than 100 pitch 3-hitter. Hamels seems to finally found his groove after his season long struggles, winning his 3rd straight start. The Nationals could do nothing all game, only once getting a runner as far as second base, and that was only because Jimmy Rollins threw a sure out into the dugout for the two base error. The Phillies meanwhile, get a 2-run blast for Ryan Howard and a 2-run shot for Jayson Werth in the 4th inning for four runs, and an Aaron Rowand RBI single adds another run in the 8th. |

Cole Hamels held Washington scoreless on just 3 hits as the red-hot
Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Washington Nationals by the score of 5 to
0 at RFK STADIUM.
Hamels(8-10) simply dominated Washington. He allowed just 3 hits and 2 walks
in 9 innings. Philadelphia rapped out 9 hits for the night.
Joel Hanrahan(0-2) was hit with the loss. Manny Acta was obviously impressed
with the pitching of Hamels, 'That guy made us look a little silly out there
tonight. We just couldn't get to him at all - everything was working for
him. I just hope that he got that kinda performance out of his system.'
