TORONTO — Bryce Harper homered in his first at-bat following a five-game absence, Trea Turner went deep twice and the Phillies scored six runs in the first inning Tuesday night on the way to an 8-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays that ended a four-game skid.

Harper was back in action after being sidelined with a bruised right elbow after being hit by a pitch. The Phillies went 1-4 without the slugger and fell out of first place in the NL East.

Against the Blue Jays, Harper went 1 for 3 with two walks and scored twice.

Left-hander Cristopher Sánchez (5-1) allowed one run in six innings to win for the first time since May 7.

Addison Barger hit a two-run home run off Maz Lazar, and Davis Schneider hit a solo shot off Sánchez, but Toronto had its five-game winning streak halted.
