Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels allowed two runs on five hits in seven innings of work in Philadelpia's 3-2 win over the Pirates on Wednesday.
Hamels cruised through much of his start, striking out nine batters. His only issue came in the fifth inning when he loaded the bases. After striking out Sean Rodriguez, Hamels allowed an RBI single to Andrew McCutchen, scoring two runs.
Hamels, now 3-3, lowered his ERA to 3.53 in 51 innings of work. He will look to keep rolling Monday against the Rockies.
