Game 37: Hamels vs. Misch
Philadelphia Phillies at San Francisco Giants, May 9, 2008 10:15 PM EDT
Those looking forward to Hamels/Lincecum II: Timtastic Colealoo might be disappointed by the actual matchup, but the Phillies hitters probably are okay with avoiding LIncecum's electric stuff just a day after getting shut down by Arizona ace Brandon Webb. They managed to chase Patrick Misch a week ago tonight after four innings, scoring four times off five hits and two walks in an eventual 6-5 win. The 26 year-old Giants righty is looking for his first major-league win; he has no decisions in two starts this season and is 0-4 for his career.
The Phils should get a boost from the long-awaited return of Jimmy Rollins, who will be leading off and playing shortstop after his activation from the disabled list earlier today.

Cole’s stuff doesn’t look that bad tonight. Felt a bit like the wide open strike zone did get smaller that inning. This past inning and the one Eaton had earlier this week were similar in that the defense didn’t help out by catching difficult but catchable balls (In that both hit gloves).

Jimmy is my hero. The energy really is pretty different.
Three hits tonight. Who was it that called him a “red-light player”?
