Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels wasn't a factor in Wednesday's decision despite giving up just five hits and one walk in eight scoreless innings and striking out 11 in his team's 3-0 win over the Padres.
Hamels has gone at least seven innings in seven straight starts, giving up one earned run or fewer five times during that stretch. However, he's only managed to secure two wins during the streak despite his generally excellent performance. Hamels owns a 3.07 ERA and 70:22 K:BB ratio in 67 1/3 innings. He'll take on the Braves Monday.
