 TORONTO (AP) - Vernon Wells wasn't sure how to react after hitting a home run for the first time in 88 at-bats. "I didn't know what to do when I hit it," Wells said. "I was kind of shocked, honestly."
Wells hit a two-run shot and drove in a season-high four runs, Shaun Marcum struck out a career-high 11 over seven innings and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Washington Nationals 7-3 on Saturday.
Wells, who signed a seven-year, $126-million contract extension in the offseason, homered for the first time since May 20 at Philadelphia. It was his sixth homer of the season.
