Homers doom Hamels in fine no-decision: Phillies SP Cole Hamels (9-6) allowed two runs on four hits over eight innings Sunday, but took the no-decision after giving up a game-tying solo homer to Cody Ross in the eighth. The Marlins went on to win the game 3-2 in extras. Hamels struck out seven, walked two, and his first run came off a Jeremy Hermida solo shot. (Updated 07/20/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Hamels has allowed only two earned runs in each of his last three starts, but is 0-1 over that span. He has obviously suffered from a lack of run support, and the Phillies are just going through a semi-offensive slump right now. Still, Hamels is a stud and remains a must-start in all formats for Fantasy Week 17 (July 21-27), when he will get one start against Atlanta on Saturday. Hamels is 2-0 with a 0.51 ERA in two starts against the Braves this season. (Updated 07/20/2008).
