This is exactly how I imagined it the morning I woke up to the news that the Phillies had signed Cliff Lee.
Wins, complete games, shutouts, lots of strikeouts.
Boy is it nice having multiple aces.
Not to be outdone after a complete game win from Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee was actually better.
The Phillies second ace pitched a complete game shutout, allowing only three hits and striking out 12.
Not a bad way to end a series, eh?
Lee was not perfect though. He did allow an uncharacteristic walk.
"I regret the walk," he said after the game.
And I appreciate the desire for perfection.
The Phillies took two out of three games from the Nats and now they play a three game series against Florida, where they will have two more aces going.
Yep, this is exactly how I imagined it.
