Walk away: Indians rally again, keep AL Central hopes alive

CLEVELAND (AP) Once again, the Indians grabbed water bottles, poured from the dugout and danced around the infield grass like little kids at recess.

Walk-off week rolls on.

Cesar Hernandez ripped an RBI double into the right-field corner with two outs in the ninth inning as Cleveland rallied for its third dramatic win in four days, a 4-3 victory Friday night over the Pittsburgh Pirates that kept the Indians' hopes alive for winning the AL Central.

''That's what we want,'' said starter Carlos Carrasco. ''We want to win the division.''

Down 3-1 and held to one hit for eight innings, the Indians found more of the late-inning magic that has carried them this week.
