The Rockies evened off this best of 5 between the Phillies as they were able to solve pitcher Cole Hamels.

Philles C. Hamels allowed 4 runs on 7 hits through 5 innings as he will go into his next possible start in this Series with a 7.20 ERA.

Philiedelphia got some timely offense as well as Colorado with the bats of Raul Ibanez, Ryan Howard and Jason Werth.

LF Raul Ibanez is among other plays on this team who are 4 for 8 at the plate in their first two games as Raul was 2 for 4 with 2 runs batted in.

Raul is a solid #6 hitter in any lineup, and gives a lot as you run through their order.

The Phillies were given another great performance out of their # 4 and 5 hitters to put up 4 runs in the game.

1B Ryan Howard scorches a RBI double during the first inning continuing to come through into the pressures of October Baseball.

Ryan was 2 for 4 with a RBI to add to his 2009 ALDS numbers which stand at 4 hits in 8 at bats for a .500 average.

Jason looks to be a special player for the Philly organization, and will be a fan favorite during his stay.

Although the bats came around on both sides someone had to lose, and the Philies dropped game two to even the Series at 1-1.

These two teams will go for game 3 in Colorado on Saturday at 9:37 pm eastern time to see who wants the lead.
