CLEVELAND (AP) - Cliff Lee followed his return from the disabled list with a more important comeback. After a rough start to the season, the left-hander finally looks all right. Lee shut down the NL's highest-scoring team and Kelly Shoppach hit a three-run homer off Cole Hamels, leading the Cleveland Indians to a 10-1 rout of the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday night.
Lee (4-4), injured and inconsistent most of this season, improved to 10-1 in interleague play. He won for just the second time in six starts, allowing one run and five hits in seven innings his longest start since May 8.
"I didn't do my job there for a while," said Lee, who missed all of April after getting hurt early in spring training. "But now I'm starting to get where I want to be. Hopefully, I can carry this over and keep it rolling."
