Midnight’s Children

The Phillies received another excellent pitching performance from Brett Myers yesterday iin a 10 2 win of visiting Houston. Myers threw 7 inning s of 5 hit ball alowing just 1 earned run and walked only 1 wyhile strking out 8. He had his command from the start and looked to be in mid-season form. The Phillies are really counting on Myers to be one of their anchors along with Cole Hamels. The Phillies received home runs off the bats of Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, Pat Burrell and Chris Coste who had 4 hits on the afternoon. The Mets are in for the weekend and a good pitching dual tonight with Cole Hamels vs Johan Santana. Should be a agood series.
