CINCINNATI, June 18 (UPI) -- Brandon Morrow and two relievers teamed up for a seven-hit shutout Saturday, carrying the Toronto Blue Jays to a 4-0 whitewash of Cincinnati.

Morrow (3-4) broke a personal five-game winless streak, logging his first victory since May 15. The right-hander threw 6 2/3 scoreless frames, allowing five hits and one walk while fanning six.

Jason Frasor and Jon Rauch completed the shutout for the Blue Jays, who clinched their three-game interleague series against the Reds.

Jose Molina went 2-for-3 with a solo homer and Jose Bautista contributed an RBI single among his two hits for Toronto.

Cincinnati's Edinson Volquez (4-3) was touched for four runs on seven hits over five frames, walking two and striking out eight.

The Reds fell to 0-5 in interleague play with the loss.
