CLEVELAND (AP) — Not even Cliff Lee could stop Cleveland’s slide.

The reigning Cy Young Award winner lost his second consecutive start and the Indians, expected to contend this season, remained the AL’s only winless team, losing 5-4 to Roy Halladay and the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday to fall to 0-5 for the first time in 24 years.

Halladay (2-0), a 20-game winner last season who finished second to Lee in Cy Young balloting, held Cleveland to one run and five hits in seven innings. The right-hander struck out seven, including two in a sticky second, and was never in real trouble.
