We all fell back toe Earth last night, as the Phils dropped one 5-4 to the Marlins. Up three games in the NL East, the Phils will try to get back on the horse with Cole Hamels taking the mound. He’s coming off a great start, a compete game shutout against the Reds. He’ll face Andrew Miller, a lefty who couldn’t get through the fourth as the Phils burned him for four runs en route to an 11-3 win.
The righties will be starting tonight as the Phils face two consecutive lefties to finish off the series.
Phillies: Cole Hamels (6-4) 3.36 ERA
Marlins: Andrew Miller (4-5) 5.65 ERA
Gametime: 7:10 p.m. EST
Weather: 82, possible showers
Lineup: Rollins, Victorino, Utley, Howard, Burrell, Werth, Feliz, Ruiz, Hamels

Your gamenight beer: After last night a bunch of fans went into hysterics that the Phils weren’t close to a top-flight team. Well, calm down everyone,everything will be OK. So tonight I give you O.K. Beer, a Euro pale lager. Dig the lady on the label — that’s the kind of dress you can toss to the floor. You’d be hard pressed to find this beer, but when you do, you’ll be satisfied. Just enough.
Go Phillies!

Big game for Cole. The fish kinda lit him up last time. He needs to prove he belongs in the all star game tonight.

Shane is really smashing the ball, unfortunately its right at someone. They’ll start falling and he’ll pick up where he was a few days ago.

I believe Ruiz has caught every Hamels start this year. They must be developing a good on field relationship. Oddly, Hamels used to always go with Coste. Not sure why he switched.

Man, Cole looks great tonight. This offense needs to wake up and be patient against Miller.

What did Utley do? I’m watching on the computer.

utleys fault there.he had plenty of time to get back to the bag b4 he tagged him. but thats alright from chase. he doesnt have many boneheaded plays. no matter how bad howards sucked it up this year he has hustled out EVERY ground ball. i respect that

howard hit an incredibly weak groundball up the middle. utley was safe at 2nd, but for some reason didn’t realize that he was safe, and he slid past the bag (he thought he was just breaking up a double play). he was tagged out after sliding off the base.

he went in there to break up a DP and overslid the base but he was actually safe a didnt relize it and eventually got tagged out without any movement back to the base. he could of got back easily if he realized it
