LeSean McCoy Jersey. Washington is enjoying a winning streak after snapping an eight-game losing streak with a victory at Ottawa on Sunday. John Carlson added a goal and an assist, and Michal Neuvirth made 35 saves. The Capitals jumped back over Atlanta into first place in the Southeast Division. Baltimore Ravens Boldin Jersey. Ross batted .294 with five homers, 10 RBI and 11 runs scored during the run to a World Series championship and was in postseason form last night against the Arizona Diamondbacks with the game-winning hit in the bottom of the ninth.Washington, DC (Sports Network) - Cole Hamels snapped baseballs most shocking winning streak of the season, blanking the Nationals into the eighth inning and keeping the Phillies close in the National League East race with a 4-0 victory on Tuesday night. Hamels (12-8) mixed his trademark change-up with a solid fastball and improved curveball to frustrate Washington hitters over 7 1/3 frames. His 106-pitch effort put an end to Washingtons seven-game winning streak, which still left it as baseballs worst team by percentage points entering play Tuesday. He gave up a walk and hit before exiting in the eighth. J.C. Romero and Chad Durbin navigated the stormy seas to record the final two outs of the frame. Jimmy Rollins continued his hot play of late with two hits, two runs batted in and a run scored for the Phillies, winners in three of four. Philadelphia entered the game two games behind the New York Mets in the division race. The Mets are currently playing in Milwaukee. John Lannan (8-13) was hit with the loss after giving up two runs on five hits over six frames. Lannans lack of run support continues to be the story of his bittersweet campaign, as the left-hander has 13 losses despite a 3.88 earned run average. The games momentum changed in the bottom of the second. Ronnie Belliard singled and likely would have scored if Elijah Dukes gapper hadnt bounced over the fence for a ground-rule double. Jesus Flores then lofted a shallow fly ball to center, where Shane Victorino dived for a catch and quickly tossed to second base for the double play on Dukes. Belliard didnt tag on the play and was subsequently stranded. Philadelphia scored a pair of runs in the top of the third. Pedro Feliz singled and waas erased on Carlos Ruizs force out prior to Hamels sacrifice bunt. Kenny Phillips Jersey Rollins followed with a two-out, run-scoring single, moved to second on the throw home and scored himself on Chase Utleys base hit. Later in the frame, with Jayson Werth on first and Utley on third, the second baseman tried to score on Lannans pickoff throw to first. The relay home was in time for the out as Utleys shoulder drove into Flores ankle and knee. "Dont say old school, thats good school," said Phillies manager Charlie Manuel in response to a comment about Utleys old school play. "Thats the way you play the game, unless you want to put some rouge and makeup, lipstick on." The catcher stayed on the ground for several minutes before a stretcher and ambulance appeared near home plate. He was diagnosed with an ankle sprain after an x-ray showed no structural damage. An MRI is still slated for Wednesday. With Hamels cruising along, the Phillies added two insurance runs in the seventh. Feliz and Ruiz each singled before Hamels moved both runners up with a grounder to third. Rollins then drove one of the runners in with a base hit to right, and stayed in a rundown long enough for Ruiz to score another run with two outs later in the frame. Notes: Hamels is 3-0 in his last four starts..Hamels has pitched at least .The Phillies have won nine of the 14 meetings with Washington this season with a 6-2 mark as the visitor..The Phillies are 37-34 away from Citizens Bank Park this season..The Nats made a host of roster moves prior to the contest. They recalled pitchers Tyler Clippard, Mike OConnor and Ryan Wagner, while placing outfielder Justin Maxwell (right wrist) on the disabled list. ' ' '
