And Ryan Madsen, the pitcher that he replaced in the rotation gives up the lead. No chance for a win by Cole Hamels tonight.

Agreed. Very impressive start. Walks are the only flaw for the night. Struck out Griffey twice and took care of the pitcher twice to pad his stats.

Pretty impressive crop of youngsters actually filling out the Phillies' pitching staff with 25 year old Brett Myers; 22 year old Cole Hamels; 23 year old Gavin Floyd and 25 year old Ryan Madsen. Scary that the Phillies are trying to count on these youngsters in the rotation while trying to compete in the NL East. They may be struggling but lots of hype on this group.
