A.J. Happ pitched a five-hit shutout, Jayson Werth homered twice and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Toronto Blue Jays 10-0 Saturday.
In the first complete game of his career, Happ (5-0) struck out four and didn't walk a batter to win for the first time in four starts, helping the Phillies snap a three-game losing streak. The victory was Philadelphia's third in 14 games.
After going without an extra-base hit for the first time in 97 games in Friday's 6-1 defeat, the Phillies used the long ball to jump ahead quickly, homering twice in the top of the first.
Werth hit a towering two-run drive into the upper deck, his 14th, and Pedro Feliz added a two-out homer to left.
Toronto left-hander Brad Mills (0-1) allowed eight runs on eight hits.
