Washington, DC (Sports Network) - Cliff Lee threw a three-hit shutout and Carlos Ruiz ended Jordan Zimmermanns bid for a perfect game in the sixth with a solo homer as the Phillies topped the Nationals, 4-0, to win the rubber match of a three-game set. Lee (2-1) threw 99 pitches while striking out 12 batters, one shy of a career- high, as the Phillies improved to 9-3, winning all three series this season. Lee also recorded the 21st complete game of his career and sixth shutout. I was pretty much putting the ball where I wanted to most of the time, Lee said. Ruiz finished 2-for-4 with two runs scored, while both Placido Polanco and Jimmy Rollins added an RBI. Zimmermann (1-2) went seven-plus innings, allowing four runs -- one earned -- on five hits while striking out four. Daniel Espinosa had a double for Washington, which has dropped three of five. Lees complete game comes one night after Roy Halladay had a shutout going through eight innings until Washington added two runs in the ninth, however the Phillies held on to top the Nationals 3-2, giving Halladay his 59th career complete game. Lee sat down the first six batters he faced until Espinosa led off the third inning with a double to right center that bounced off the outfield padding. Espinosa then moved to third on a Jerry Hairston Jr. fly to center, and was tagged at home when he tried to advance on a Zimmerman grounder to short. Lee then struck out Ian Desmond looking to end the frame. Wilson Ramos led off the fifth with a single to left, but after Mike Morse struck out swinging, Ramos was caught stealing second. Espinosa popped out to short to end the frame. Zimmermann retired the first 15 batters he saw, until Ruiz led off the sixth inning with his second homer of the season, into the left field flowerbed, recording the Phillies first hit and putting them up 1-0. I just made that one mistake to Ruiz, Zimmermann said. That was pretty much the game. Shane Victorino then hit a two-out double into the left field corner, and after Polanco hit a sharp grounder to third, Hairston Jr. overthrew first base, allowing Victorino to score as Polanco was granted second base. Rollins popped out to left to end the rally. Both pitchers threw a hitless seventh, and the Phillies proceeded to chase Zimmermann from the game in the eighth. Ruiz and Wilson Valdez hit consecutive singles to begin the frame, and Lee loaded the bases after Espinosa bobbled a grounder to second. Zimmermann was pulled for Nationals closer Drew Storen, however, he did not fare any better. After fanning Victorino, Polanco scored Ruiz on a fielders choice and Valdez scored on a Rollins single. Storen was then pulled for lefty Doug Slaten. Slaten then froze Ryan Howard on a called third strike to end frame. Lee recorded his only walk of the game, allowing Ramos to take first to begin the eighth. The Phillies hurler stranded Ramos as he then sat down the Nationals 6-7-8 batters in order to get out of the inning. Pinch-hitter Jesus Flores singled to begin the ninth but consecutive fly-outs by Desmond and Rick Ankiel brought up former Phillie Jayson Werth, who grounder into a fielders choice to end the game.

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills off-season search for a quarterback led them to West Virginia on Friday, where they conducted a private workout involving Geno Smith. A person familiar with what happened told The Associated Press that Smiths workout took place on campus in the morning. The person added the former Mountaineer had dinner the previous night with general manager Buddy Nix, assistant GM Doug Whaley, coach Doug Marrone and offensive co-ordinator Nathaniel Hackett. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the Bills would not reveal any details except to announce the workout had been scheduled. Smith is regarded as one of the top quarterback prospects available in the NFL draft next month. The Bills open the draft with the eighth pick, and Nix has already expressed an interest in selecting a quarterback, though he wont be pinned down to what round. Buffalos need at quarterback ggrew larger last week after the team released returning starter Ryan Fitzpatrick, who has since signed with the Tennessee Titans.dddddddddddd That leaves Tarvaris Jackson as the only experienced quarterback currently on the Bills roster. Last season, Smith threw for 4,205 yards and led the nation with 42 touchdown passes. This is the second time in a little over a week that Bills officials have watched Smith work out. Several team officials attended West Virginias pro day on March 14. Smith also participated in the NFL combine at Indianapolis last month. Marrone is already very familiar with Smith. Hired by the Bills in January after four seasons at Syracuse, Marrone went 3-0 against Smith and the Mountaineers. That included a 38-14 win in the Pinstripe Bowl in December. Smith struggled on a snowy day, going 16 for 26 for 197 yards and two touchdowns, but also gave up two safeties. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys cheap jerseys ' ' '
