CLEVELAND -- Aroldis Chapmans footwork was more important than his fastball with the game on the line Thursday night.Chapman -- sprinting to cover first base with two on and two outs in the ninth inning -- beat Tyler Naquin to the bag by a split-second and preserved the Yankees 5-4 victory over the Cleveland Indians.The speedy Naquin hit a shot toward the hole that first baseman Mark Teixeira dived at, then deflected toward second baseman Starlin Castro, who rifled it to Chapman in full stride.Umpire Tom Hallion initially ruled Naquin safe to load the bases, but the call was overturned on a game-ending challenge by New York manager Joe Girardi.I thought the ball was by (Teixeira), but he made a great play for us, Chapman said through an interpreter. I felt the guy was out all along, but we had to wait on the call.Didi Gregorius had two hits and scored twice for the Yankees, who are 3-4 on their 10-game trip. The veteran shortstop hit his career-high 10th home run.Chase Headley added two singles and drove in the go-ahead run in the sixth, while Brett Gardner and Jacoby Ellsbury had two hits and an RBI apiece.American League Central leader Cleveland lost its second straight home game after winning 13 in a row at Progressive Field.I think we kind of knew that call at the end was going against us, Indians manager Terry Francona said. You kind of brace for it.Girardi felt the same way, as did the thousands of Yankees fans who celebrated loudly when the announcement was made.Chappy can make that play because hes a great athlete, Girardi said. Thats why you work on it every day. I was a little worried when he hit it, but Tex made a great play to keep it in there.New York right-hander Ivan Nova (6-5) stopped a two-game losing streak and earned his first road victory since June 3, against Baltimore. He struck out six in 5 1/3 innings, allowing four runs, in the opener of the four-game series.Dellin Betances and Andrew Miller followed and combined for 2 2/3 scoreless frames. Chapman gave up a single and a walk in the ninth before picking up his 17th save, hitting 100 mph on 16 of his 28 pitches.You want to get our bullpen the lead because if you do, its almost a sure win, Nova said. It was good tonight because we beat a team thats in first place.The Yankees scored three times in the sixth to take a 5-2 lead. Headley and Ellsbury had RBI singles, while Rob Refsnyder delivered a sacrifice fly that chased Indians starter Trevor Bauer (7-3).Naquin and Jason Kipnis homered in the third to give Cleveland a 2-0 lead. New York tied the game in the fifth when Gregorius went deep and Gardner had an RBI single.A-ROD UPDATEYankees DH Alex Rodriguez, who has 695 career home runs, was not in the lineup for the second straight game. The three-time AL MVP is batting .220 with eight homers and 28 RBI in 50 games. Its been a struggle, especially against right-handers, for him, Girardi said. Alex has been doing it for a long time and hes been a very productive hitter. Its not easy.TRAINERS ROOMYankees: DH Carlos Beltran (right hamstring tightness) did not play the field as Girardi attempts to manage his injury. Beltran was initially hurt on June 29, against Texas.Indians: RHP Zach McAllister (right hip discomfort) was placed on the 15-day DL. He allowed four runs in 1/3 of an inning Wednesday in a 12-2 loss to Detroit.UP NEXTYankees: RHP Chad Green earned his first major league win in his last outing, going six innings in a July 3 start at San Diego.Indians: RHP Corey Kluber is 1-1 with a 2.65 ERA in three career starts against the Yankees. He last faced them on Aug. 9, 2014. Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys .com) - Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray and Roger Federer were easy first-round winners Tuesday at the Australian Open. Cheap NFL Jerseys .

Eric ONeal says most of the arrests at Monday nights game were for public drunkenness, though one person was taken into custody on suspicion of trying to steal a seat from the stadium. Heavyweight contender Luis King Kong Ortiz was as frustrated as anybody who might have watched his fight with Malik Scott on Saturday.Although Ortiz scored three knockdowns and won with absolute ease at the Salle des Etoiles in Monte Carlo, he could not make the statement he hoped for with the quick knockout most expected. Instead, Ortiz was forced to go past eight rounds for the first time as Scott ran, backpedaled, complained about nonfouls, clinched and never tried to legitimately compete or win.In the end, however, Ortiz won by scores of 120-105, 120-106 and 119-106 on the judges scorecards. ESPN.com scored it 120-105, giving every around to Ortiz, who came into the fight with a reputation as the most avoided man in the division.Perhaps seeing Ortiz forced to go 12 rounds, albeit with an unwilling foe, might entice others to give him a go, but he was still disappointed with the fight, his first since paying Golden Boy Promotions $1.1 million to buy out his contract after a falling out and then signing about six weeks ago with Eddie Hearns Matchroom Boxing, the leading promoter in the United Kingdom.I came to fight, and he came to run, Ortiz said through a translator. He was so negative he made it hard to make it a good fight. Everyone came to see a show, to see a fight, a brawl, and he didnt want that, which is sad.Ortiz, who was recently stripped of an interim title when he blew off a mandatory fight with Alexander Ustinov after signing with Hearn, will have a chance to rid himself and fight fans of the bad taste from facing Scott because he is due back in the ring to face an opponent to be determined on the undercard of heavyweight world titleholder Anthony Joshuas defense against Eric Molina on Dec. 10 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England.Scott (38-3-1, 13 KOs), of Philadelphia, gave a clear indication of his unwillingness to fight barely a minute into the bout when, because he had done so little, referee Jean-Robert Laine stopped the fight briefly and warned Scott that he had to fight.But Scott, 36,?barely did, instead literally running around the ring at times while a frustrated Ortiz (26-0, 22 KOs) tried to land his powerful left hand.Im disappointed to not get another KO, Ortiz saidd.dddddddddddd He moved around so much, he made that hard, but the most important thing from that now is the rounds and the win.Scotts lack of effort was illustrated in the CompuBox punch statistics. While Ortiz landed 146 of 472 punches (31 percent), Scott landed 45 of 155 (29 percent). Scott, who was knocked out in 96 seconds by Deontay Wilder in 2014 and then won his next two bouts, never threw more than 21 punches in any round against Ortiz and never landed more than seven punches in a round.Ortiz, of Miami, landed a left hand over the top in the third round, and the 6-foot-4, 246-pound Scott went down, but Laine surprisingly ruled it a slip. It was one of several times that Scott hit the deck but Laine did not call a knockdown.Laine did call one in the fourth round, however, when Ortiz landed a left hand behind Scotts ear. But Laine also inexplicably helped Scott to his feet during the count. Later in the round, Scott went down, but again Laine ruled a slip.In the fifth round, Ortiz dropped Scott with a left hand, and Scott tried to sell it as though he had been hit behind the head, but Laine did not buy his theatrics and gave him a count.The 6-4, 239?-pound Ortiz, a 37-year-old southpaw who was schooled in the famed Cuban amateur system before defecting and turning pro in 2010, notched his third official knockdown 30 seconds into the ninth round when he clubbed Scott to the body with a clean left hand.Scott has always had the reputation of being unwilling to engage with his opponents, but his performance against Ortiz was even more negative than usual, and Hearn was rightfully disgusted.Malik wanted the fight and the opportunity, but [Scott] just came to survive, Hearn said. Luis maybe could have forced the pace and forced him to trade, but well get someone that wants to fight on Dec. 10, and well see more of Luis in Manchester.Malik talked us into the fight but didnt deliver. Luis will get a proper fight next time, and well see him at his best. Theres fighting on the back foot and getting through a fight, and then theres just plain running, and sadly thats what we saw.
