CLEVELAND -- Drew Stubbs knew he was taking a chance. Herman Edwards Womens Jersey . Luckily for the Cleveland Indians, his gamble paid off. Stubbs slid home with the winning run on Jason Kipnis fielders choice ground ball in the ninth inning to give the Cleveland Indians a 2-1 win over the Washington Nationals on Friday night. "Going on contact is a chance you take, but fortunately, I was able to get under the tag," Stubbs said. With runners on second and third and one out, Kipnis sent a hard grounder to the right side. First baseman Adam LaRoche made a diving backhanded stop and fired to catcher Kurt Suzuki, but Stubbs beat the throw with a slide. Suzuki, who perhaps had the best view of the winning play, gave Stubbs all the credit. "He beat the throw. Its as simple as that," Suzuki said. "Stubbs is probably one of the fastest guys in the league, you know, and he just beat the throw." Clevelands speed, which also featured a perfect hit-and-run play earlier in the inning, played a big part in the rally as the Indians got back to .500 (33-33). "You have to respect the speed," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "It was a heck of a play by LaRoche, but fortunately, Stubbs went on contact, and his speed beat the throw." Stubbs one-out single off Fernando Abad (0-1) started the rally. As Stubbs broke off first, Michael Bourn punched a ground ball through the hole that opened when Steve Lombardozzi went to cover second base. Stubbs advanced to third before Bourn stole second. Joe Smith (3-0) retired the side in order in the ninth for the Indians. Cleveland has won three in a row since breaking an eight-game losing streak. "Losing eight or nine in a row is not the character of this team," Stubbs said. "We just needed a few breaks to go our way to turn things around." Cleveland starter Justin Masterson and Washingtons Gio Gonzalez both allowed one run in seven innings, but werent involved in the decision. Mastersons bases-loaded wild pitch in the third inning gave the Nationals their run. Gonzalez gave up a two-out homer to Ryan Raburn in the fourth. The Indians loaded the bases in the sixth and eighth innings but failed to score. Masterson, who held Washington to two hits, struck out 10 and walked four. He was removed from the game after throwing 113 pitches. The Indians managed only three hits off Gonzalez, who struck out eight and walked four. Three of the walks came with two outs in the sixth, but the left-hander retired Mark Reynolds on a popup to keep the game tied. Gonzalez, who threw a season-high 127 pitches, is 5-0 with a 0.81 ERA in six career starts against the Indians. He is 4-0 with a 0.82 ERA in five career starts in Cleveland. "(Gonzalez) was good, so was Masty," Francona said. "We saw (seven) pretty good innings of good pitching both ways." Masterson remained dominant at Progressive Field. The right-hander is 5-1 with a 2.23 ERA in eight home starts this season. "Hes a great pitcher," Masterson said of Gonzalez. "Hes their workhorse. Our guys kept saying, Wait him out, wait him out. And we finally got him out of the game." Walks to Suzuki and Roger Bernadina along with Lombardozzis single loaded the bases in the third. Masterson then bounced a 1-1 pitch in the dirt with Ryan Zimmerman batting to score Suzuki. Raburns two-out homer to right tied it in the fourth. Raburn, moved to the cleanup spot by Francona, is 7-for-13 with three home runs against Gonzalez. Ian Desmond was 0-for-3 with a walk, ending his 15-game hitting streak. The Indians were coming off a road trip in which they dropped the first seven games before winning the last two in Texas. Cleveland broke an eight-game losing streak on Tuesday.

Star hooker Josh Hodgson knows he has to step up for Canberra in the absence of Blake Austin.Hodgson helped steer the Raiders to a 44-30 win over Manly on Saturday in their first match since Austin suffered a potentially season-ending hand injury at training.The Raiders are in with a chance of claiming a top-two finish but many pundits have written them off as a title threat without star pivot Austin.Hodgson is confident he can fill the void.I do need to be more vocal than I would be and get us to the right points on the ground a bit more, he told AAP.But attacking-wise I thought Sammy (replacement half Sam Williams) fitted in really well.He got us around the field well, he talked well, kicked well and just did his job which is massive thing we need from Sammy when we lose someone like Austo.Star Manly fullback Tom Trbojevic scored three tries on Canberras left side where Austin traditionally defends alongside centre Joey LLeilua and winger Jordan Rapana. Chuck Bednarik Youth Jersey. Hodgson conceded the Raiders need to work on their defence in that area.We had a couple of lapses on the right edge, that will get better with them all fitting in there, BJ (Leilua) and Rapa, Hodgson said.That is something we will work on but I am sure we can get it right.Sammy knows we have every confidence in him.Canberra face Wests Tigers in the final match of the regular season at Leichhardt Oval on Sunday.If Cronulla lose to Melbourne the night before, Canberra can claim a top two finish with a win.If Gold Coast lost to North Queensland the night before, the Tigers can earn eighth spot with a win.We know they will come out looking to throw the ball around at home, that is how they play and we will be looking forward to the challenge, Hodgson said.
