Ryan Howard is heating up. That’s a great sign for the Phillies. After struggling in their last two games in St. Louis, the Phillies were able to shake off some rust and defeat the defending world series champion, Boston Red Sox  8-2 on Monday.

Howard sent a two run homerun over the boards in the first inning, and then blasted a solo shot in the third, to get the night started. Ryan later tripled in Chase Utley to drive in the 8th and final run for the Phillies. That left him 3-5, with 2 runs scored, 2 homeruns, a triple, 4 rbi’s and 2 strikeouts. Pretty productive night for Ryno! His average is now up to .224. It’s heading in the right direction.

Chase Utley went 0-5 on the night, but did score a run. Jimmy Rollins had three hits, and three rbi’s to help Howard out.

Cole Hamels picked up his 7th win, going 7 innings, allowing 7hits, 2 runs, both earned, walking 2, and striking out five. His only runs allowed  were homeruns to Dustin Pedroia, and JD Drew.

The Phillies and Red Sox are back at it tonight at 6:05 with Jon Lester facing Jaime Moyer.
