Cole Hamels continued his recent string of effective starts, as he held the Braves to two runs over eight innings Sunday. The Phillies' lefty allowed only a pair of Evan Gattis solo homers and two walks in the 3-2 victory, and he finished with nine strikeouts.
This was Hamels' ninth straight quality start. He is now 7-13 with a 3.45 ERA on the season.
