The Phillies officially announced a three-year, $8.85 million contract extension for catcher Carlos Ruiz on Tuesday.
The pact takes Ruiz through the 2012 season and includes a club option for a fourth year, earlier reported to be for $5 million with a $500,000 buyout.
Ruiz batted .255 with nine homers and 43 runs batted in during the 2009 regular season. He thrived in the postseason, hitting .341 with a pair of homers, nine RBI and 12 walks for the reigning National League champions.
