Phillies starting pitcher Cole Hamels really only made one mistake Tuesday, but it was enough to cost him in a 6-2 loss to the Rockies.
Hamels pitched into the seventh inning for the fourth straight start, and had the Rockies' offense held in check for most of it. The big blow came in the seventh, as Wilin Rosario clubbed a three-run home run to right, putting the Rockies up for good.
Hamels was charged with four runs on just three hits and two walks in seven innings of work. He struck out four while throwing 71 of 99 pitches for strikes in the loss, his third of the season.
Hamels is now 1-3 with a 4.43 ERA through seven starts. He will try to get his record moving in the right direction in his next start, set for Sunday against the Mets.
