Because of strong storms, the Phillies-Rockies game was postponed on Saturday.  We’ll have a split double-header on Sunday.

The Phillies enjoyed a nice come from behind victory on Friday.  Despite the victory, the Phillies couldn’t do too much damage against a struggling pitcher.  They will be facing  pitchers today who have poor numbers: Tyler Chatwood and Drew Pomeranz.

Cole Hamels wasn’t his best in his last start, but he continues to have a terrific season.  Hamels faced the Rockies on June 19 and pitched 8 strong innings, allowing just two runs.

Tyler Cloyd is off to a solid major league start.  He earned his first major league win in last start.  He has 14 strikeouts in 13 innings.

Your Gameday Beer – Birra Moretti
We’re going with an easy drinker. This Italian Pilsner has a crisp golden pour and similarly light flavor. It’s both bubbly and hoppy and since neither are overwhelming it makes for a nice party in your mouth. Keep it going with your favorite hoagie. – By Brian
