On a night when Jayson Werth was in all the headlines (despite no longer being on the team) Cole Hamels is the name everyone is talking about today after Hamels allowed just five hits, one run, one walk and struck out six in his first complete game of 2011.
It was a mixed reaction for Werth as “The Bank” was filled with boos and cheers as Werth made his first appearance in Philadelphia since he signed his mega $126 million contract with the Nats late last year.
