The Phils finished off their 3 game set with the Braves tonight. Cole Hamels got the start and produced another masterful performance allowing just 1 run on 5 hits in 8 and 2/3rds innings of work, to the delight of the tired Phils' bullpen. Now onto the game. In the top of the first Chase Utley slammed a solo homer for a 1-0 lead. In the top of the 2nd, Pat "the Bat" Burrell slapped a double and scored on a single by Pedro Feliz for a 2-0 lead. In the top of the 6th, Ryan Howard slugged a solo homer for a 3-0 lead. In the top of the 7th, Pedro Feliz crushed a solo homer for a 4-0 lead. Finally in the bottom of the 9th, Hamels ran out of gas, allowing the Braves only run of the night, before Tom "Flash" Gordon came in and forced Jeff Franceur to fly out to end the game in a 4-1 Phils win, clinching their 2nd successive 3 game sweep of the Braves in Atlanta. So the Phils improve to 47-39 overall and move to 2.5 games up in the NL East.
