Bastardo Helps Shut Down Padres

Raul Ibanez homered twice and drove in five runs, and left-hander Antonio Bastardo won his major league debut as the Philadelphia Phillies jumped on ailing Padres ace Jake Peavy in a 10-5 win.

Peavy allowed four runs before leaving after one inning, the shortest outing of his career, due to a viral upper respiratory infection.

The Phillies kept piling it on after Peavy was gone. Ibanez hit his 200th and 201st career homers -- both two-run shots -- and Greg Dobbs also connected for Philadelphia, which won its fifth straight game.

San Diego's Adrian Gonzalez hit his major league-leading 22nd homer.
