Cole Hamels pitches a no- hitter

[39special]

As a phillies fan Its great to see Hamels throw a no no.Now he will get traded by the end of the week.

That game was a blast for this long time Phillie fan too, Steve!

I thought he made a mistake with the high fastball to Ross in the 8th, but it stayed in and "Oddball " stayed with it .
Then when Bryant went deep with two outs in the 9th, I really thought it was going to hit the ivy. Oddball once again made our hearts drop to our shoes, but he stayed with that one too and made the catch!

Cole has been so great to watch, I really don't want to envision him in another uniform but it's probably best. I hate seeing Utley in this situation too, my favorite Phillie in a quarter century (since Michael Jack)

This game reminded me of the Phillie Run from 06 to 10. While I'm sad that it's over, I know that teams tend to have periods near the bottom more than they have periods at the top

Go Phillies!

It was good to see Hamels getting some run support.If he would have gotten some run support over the last 2+ years he would have a much better record.

Does this mean that HE is the greatest active pitcher THIS week?

I just know we are all over Kershaw by now, right?

Kershaw, Greinke, Hamels sounds really good to this Dodger fan. I've thought Hamels has been a great pitcher on a mediocre team for some time and today he proved it. For those who watched the Phils in the early 70's (see Steve Carlton ) know what it feels like to have an Ace on the staff and not much to back him up. Which ever team he ends up with is going to have a great addition to the club . Congrats to Cole ! Fingers crossed he lands in LA.
