Stubbs produced a 4-0 lead with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the second.
Drew Ferguson (2-for-3) added to the advantage in the bottom of the sixth when he doubled down the left field line, plating Jon Kemmer.
Up 5-0, Reymin Guduan sealed the victory with a perfect ninth, lowering his WHIP to 1.14 and batting average versus him to .136.
