DUNEDIN, Fla. (AP) — Jose Bautista doubled twice and scored a run and Brandon Morrow allowed one hit over six innings, outdueling Cliff Lee and leading the Toronto Blue Jays to a 2-0 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday.

Lee allowed one run and struck out seven in six innings. He escaped a first-inning jam by striking out the side, two coming after Kelly Johnson singled and Bautista doubled. He allowed a run in the fourth when Bautista doubled and scored on Adam Lind’s single.

The Blue Jays also scored in the eighth, when Johnson doubled after Travis Snider reached on an error by center fielder Scott Posednik.

Morrow, Carlos Villanueva, Darren Oliver and Jason Frasor limited the Phillies to four hits.
