Midnight’s Children

The Phillies managed to get out of Houston with a series split after a 15-6 win yesterday. Cole Hamels was roughed up a bit pitching 4 innings and allowing 6 runs on 7 hits and didn’t strikeout a batter. He did manage to collect 2 hits and an rbi. The Phillies were down 6-4 in the 6th inning when they erupted for 5 runs folled by a 6 run 7th inning. Pat Burrell, Geoff Jenkins and Chase Utley homered for the Philles. The bullpen threw 5 scoreless innings in relief of Hamels with Rudy Seanez notching the win. The Astros Lance Berkman went 2-5 to keep his average at .385 for the season. The Phillies will be home against the Colorado Rockies tonight.
