    Cliff Lee approaches every start aiming to go nine innings. The St. Louis Cardinals put up little resistance in the left-hander's second straight shutout.

    "There's total gratification," Lee said. "Every time I want to throw the whole game, there's no doubt about it. I think I could have gone the 10th and the 11th, too."

    Lee scattered six hits and the Philadelphia Phillies got homers from Jimmy Rollins and Ryan Howard in the fourth inning of a 4-0 victory Wednesday night.
