TORONTO - Vernon Wells homered and drove in three runs, Roy Halladay remained unbeaten against Cleveland and the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Indians 8-6 on Friday night.

Wells went 2-for-4 and was intentionally walked in the fifth. He's batting .354 (17-for-48) with seven homers and 15 RBIs in 11 games as Toronto's leadoff batter.

Halladay (10-3) allowed five runs and nine hits over 5 2-3 innings, walking one and striking out three. He is 5-0 with a 3.84 ERA in 10 career appearances against the Indians, including nine starts.

Scott Downs relieved Halladay in the sixth and pitched a scoreless inning before Casey Janssen took over and retired all four batters he faced. Jeremy Accardo worked the ninth for his 11th save in 13 opportunities.

Left fielder Reed Johnson, just activated from the disabled list, made a diving catch of Victor Martinez's sacrifice fly in the ninth. Accardo then retired Travis Hafner with a runner on to end it.

The Blue Jays erased a 1-0 deficit with a five-run second against left-hander Cliff Lee (5-5).

Gregg Zaun singled, Curtis Thigpen reached on an error and Royce Clayton walked before John McDonald hit an RBI single.
