| (Best E Casino) - Cole Hamels shoots for his 10th win of the season this afternoon when the Philadelphia Phillies play the rubber match of their three- game series with the Florida Marlins at Dolphin Stadium. Hamels, who many felt was an All-Star snub, is 9-6 on the season with a 3.15 earned run average. Hamels did not get a decision in his final start before the break last Sunday against Arizona, as he allowed two runs and 11 hits in seven innings of his team's 6-3 win. The 24-year-old lefty is 0-1 with a 5.93 ER |

| Miami, FL (Best E Casino) - The Florida Marlins placed starting pitcher Andrew Miller on the 15-day disabled list Friday with right patella tendinitis. Miller, 23, was scheduled to pitch Sunday against the Philadelphia Phillies, but Josh Johnson will take his place due to the knee injury. He was examined by team doctors on Thursday and will test his knee by throwing a bullpen session in a few days. The 23-year old Miller, acquired in an off-season trade with the Detroit Tigers, has allowed 21 runs while posting an |

| (Best E Casino) - The Philadelphia Phillies sure are a tough team to figure out. One day they can put up 20 runs in a dominating effort and the next they can put up a doughnut while struggling all night at the plate. Despite the hot-and-cold offense, the Phillies entered the All-Star break in first place in the National League East, a half game up on the New York Mets. That edge, though, was erased on Thursday when the Mets defeated the Reds while Philadelphia sat idle. With both the Phillies and Mets now holding |

Billy Wagner, who blew a save chance in Tuesday's All-Star game, retired all three batters faced in the bottom of the ninth for his 23rd save of the season. With the win, the Mets moved into a tie with the Philadelphia Phillies for the top spot in the NL East. It marks the first time New York has held at least a share of the division lead since a win over the Phils on April 19. New York turns tonight to John Maine, who has struggled over his last three starts. Maine has fa |

| (Best E Casino) - Jamie Moyer hopes to continue his mastery of the Florida Marlins this evening when the Philadelphia Phillies visit their NL East rivals for the start of a three-game series at Dolphin Stadium. Moyer is a perfect 9-0 lifetime against the Fish with a 3.03 earned run average in nine starts. He has already beaten them twice this season and was absolutely brilliant against them on June 12, surrendering just two hits over eight scoreless innings. The 45-year-old left-hander, who is 8-6 with a 3.95 ERA, |
