Cole Hamels pitched seven impressive innings, Ryan Howard and Jayson Werth homered, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Boston Red Sox 5-1 at Citizens Bank Park.
The NL East-leading Phillies (26-15) are back to a season-high 11 games over .500, but it may have been a costly victory. Jimmy Rollins left the game in the sixth with a right calf strain, and he's day to day. The three-time All-Star shortstop missed 29 games with an injured right calf before returning to the lineup Monday.
Hamels (5-2) outdueled John Lackey (4-3) in a matchup of World Series heroes. The lanky left-hander allowed one run and three hits, striking out eight. Hamels had a sharp fastball and baffled hitters with his changeup. Six of his strikeouts came on the change.
