Cliff Lee saves a stretched out Philadelphia bullpen with an eight inning performance as the Phillies beat the Reds 10-4. He was aided by a big offensive day as the Phillies took an early 4-0 lead and kept piling on. Lee walked one and struck out eight, but still allowed 10 hits, including Jay Bruce‘s 14th home run. A fresh off the disabled list Jose Contreras pitched the ninth inning. Lee’s ERA goes to 3.50, which in years past would be very good, but in this season of low offense it’s not that impressive for the money he’s receiving.
