TORONTO, June 27 (UPI) -- Jayson Werth homered twice Saturday, leading the Philadelphia Phillies to a 10-0 inter-league rout of the Toronto Blue Jays.

Winner J.A. Happ (5-0) went the distance on a five-hitter.

Werth hit a two-run shot in the top of the first inning and a solo homer in the sixth. He finished with four hits to pace Philadelphia's 14-hit attack.

One of two hits for Pedro Feliz was a two-run, first-inning homer. Ryan Howard had three hits and one RBI. Carlos Ruiz drove in two runs and Chris Coste had one RBI for the Phillies, who stopped their three-game losing streak.

John McDonald had two of the five hits for the Blue Jays, who have split their last four games.

Losing pitcher Brad Mills (0-1), making his second major league start, was touched for eight earned runs and eight hits and two walks in four innings. He struck out seven Toronto batters.
