DUNEDIN, Fla. (AP) — Greg Dobbs and John Mayberry each hit a pair of doubles, and Cody Ransom homered to lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a 4-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday.

Dobbs and Mayberry hit back-to-back doubles in the sixth inning, Wilson Valdez had an RBI grounder and Carlos Ruiz a sacrifice fly off Toronto reliever Lance Broadway to put the Phillies up 3-1. Dobbs and Mayberry also hit consecutive doubles off Kevin Gregg for a run in the fourth.

Phillies starter Cole Hamels, after three perfect innings, gave up a first-pitch home run to Jose Bautista in the bottom of the fourth.

Blue Jays starter Kyle Drabek, acquired from Philadelphia in the Roy Halladay trade, pitched two shutout innings.
