Jul 21 LHP Cole Hamels permitted little more than a pair of solo home runs to Jeremy Hermida and Cody Ross in eight innings Sunday, but the Phillies' ace said his fastball lacked its usual zip because he was unable to get loose. He attributed his problems to not working out as vigorously during the four-day All-Star break. "I was just resting, and it was just one of those things where I think the time off hurt me," said Hamels, who nevertheless allowed fewer than three runs and went longer than six innings for the eighth time in nine starts. "My body was a lot tighter, and because of that, I couldn't really push it. If I would've pushed it, I probably would've been on the disabled list. Knowing the way my body works, if I don't feel loose, I can't push it. In pushing it, you start to strain something. You start to hurt something." Yahoo! Sports


Jul 21 The Associated Press reports Philadelphia Phillies SP Cole Hamels took a two-hitter into the eighth inning Sunday, July 21, but gave up a 2-1 lead with a leadoff homer in his no-decision. Hamels allowed two runs in eight innings. He has gone at least seven innings for nine consecutive starts. KFFL
