On the night Jayson Werth finally made his return to Philadelphia, Cole Hamels stole the show. He allowed just 1 run on 5 hits while striking out 6 in a complete game win. He also went 2 for 4 from the plate with a single and a triple that setup the Phils first run of the game. It was Jimmy Rollins who knocked that run in with an RBI single in the 3rd inning. Later in the 5th, JRoll collected his own triple and scored on a sac fly by Placido Polanco. In the 7th, after Washington had cut the lead to 1, Ryan Howard ripped an RBI single the other way for a 3-1 lead, and Raul Ibanez, who came in to today 0 for his last 35, collected his 2nd double of the game and 1st RBI for a 4-1 lead. That was more than enough for Hamels it took from there, retiring the side in the 8th and 9th innings for the 4-1 win.
