CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) — Hector Luna’s RBI single in the 10th inning lifted the Philadelphia Phillies over a Toronto Blue Jays split squad 4-3 on Saturday.

Brian Bocock hit a go-ahead solo homer in the top of the ninth, but Freddy Galvis answered with a solo shot in the bottom half.

The Phillies, already missing Ryan Howard and Chase Utley, lost another All-Star infielder to injury. Third baseman Placido Polanco left the game after injuring his left ring finger diving back into first base on a pickoff attempt. There was no immediate word on the results of Polanco’s X-ray.

J.P. Arencibia also hit a solo shot for Toronto.

Jimmy Rollins hit a solo homer leading off the bottom of the first for Philadelphia.

Vance Worley threw four scoreless innings, allowing four hits and striking out three. Jonathan Papelbon pitched a scoreless inning around two hits.

Blue Jays starter Brandon Morrow allowed a run and five hits in 3 1-3 innings. Morrow had four strikeouts and has a spring ERA of 1.08.
