TORONTO (AP) --- Cristopher Snchez struck out 10 and allowed two runs in seven
innings to win for the sixth time in seven starts, Adolis Garca hit a two-run
homer and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Toronto Blue Jays 5-2 on Monday
night.
Alec Bohm reached base twice and drove in a run as the Phillies won for the
sixth time in seven games.
Snchez's shutout streak ended at 50 2/3 innings in his previous start, a win
over San Diego. The left-hander didn't permit a run in five May starts.
This time, Snchez (8-2) walked one and gave up four hits, including two
doubles and a homer. He is 4-0 with a 2.12 ERA in five career starts against
the Blue Jays.
Jhoan Duran finished for his 16th save in 16 chances.
Garca opened the scoring with a 406-foot drive off Patrick Corbin (2-3) in the
second, his seventh. Philadelphia is 27-9 when scoring first.
Six straight Phillies batters reached safely in a three-run third. Bohm and
J.T. Realmuto hit RBI singles and Bryson Stott drew a bases-loaded walk.
Toronto's Yohendrick Piango doubled to begin the sixth and advanced to third
on Garca's fielding error in right field, but Snchez responded by striking
out George Springer, Nathan Lukes and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
The top four hitters in Toronto's lineup combined to go 1 for 16 with a single.
Ernie Clement hit a solo home run off Snchez, his seventh, but Toronto dropped
to 7-15 in series openers.
Myles Straw doubled to begin the third and scored on Piango's groundout.
Corbin allowed five runs and four hits in a season-low three innings. He walked
four and struck out three.
