Lee Throws Third Straight Complete GameMariners starting pitcher Cliff Lee beat the Yankees on Tuesday night as he pitched his third straight complete game. Seattle defeated New York 7-4 as Lee was victorious despite yielding two solo home runs to Nick Swisher. Lee gave up a walk to Jorge Posada in the second inning, his first since June 2 -- five starts ago. "He's pretty much the same every time you see him," Derek Jeter said. "He's a perfect example of a guy who's going to come after you. He throws strikes, not going to hurt himself, doesn't walk anybody." He became the first pitcher to throw three complete games in a row since Randy Johnson did it in 1998.
