Cole Hamels was very good as usual, allowing just 2 runs on 8 hits while striking out 8, but it wasn't enough as the Phils managed just 1 run on 4 hits in a 4-1 loss to the A's. The Phils had chances to score late in the game but just couldn't cash in. First with the Phils down 2-1 in the 8th, Ross Gload slapped a 1 out double to the gap in left, but pinch runner Micheal Martinez was stranded after Jimmy Rollins struck out, Placido Polanco walked and Chase Utley grounded out. Later down 4-1 in the 9th, the Phils put 2 on with 1 out for Dom Brown, but he grounded into a double play to end the game.
