PHILADELPHIA, May 18 (UPI) -- Lyle Overbay walloped a three-run homer and Shannon Stewart hit a two-run double for the Toronto Blue Jays in a 6-5 win Sunday over the Philadelphia Phillies.

Toronto's victory, its sixth in seven games, came after 2 1/2 hours of rain delays.

Rod Barajas drove in the other run for the Jays.

Toronto starter Shaun Marcum gave up two runs in the first inning and left the game after a long rain delay. Reliever Jason Frasor (1-0) was the winner.

Ryan Howard slammed a two-run homer and Pat Burrell added a solo shot for the Phillies, who have dropped five of eight.

Rudy Seanez (2-3) was the losing pitcher, allowing three runs in one inning of relief.
