CLEVELAND -- Trevor Bauer proved his manager right Saturday night.Indians manager Terry Francona said before the game that Bauer would relish the idea of facing Marlins ace Jose Fernandez.Bauer then overcame a shaky first inning and pitched into the ninth in Clevelands 8-3 win over Miami.He looked like he had another gear after the first inning, Francona said. Boy, that was impressive.Bauer (10-6) shut down the Marlins after giving up three runs and three hits in the first. The right-hander didnt allow another hit until Ichiro Suzuki led off the ninth with a single. He gave up three runs and four hits in 8 1/3 innings.I thought I threw the ball really well in the first, Bauer said. The offense came back and put up two real quick, which is great for the team psyche, especially facing a guy thats really good.Francisco Lindor was 4 for 4, Jason Kipnis hit a two-run homer and Coco Crisp -- playing his first game since being acquired from Oakland -- had three hits, helping the AL Central leaders to their fifth straight win.Lindor doubled in the first and third, singled in the fourth and added an RBI single in the sixth.Kipnis hit his 22nd homer in the first off Fernandez (13-8), who gave up a career-high 12 hits and seven runs in 5 2/3 innings.Crisp began his career with the Indians and was traded following the 2005 season. He doubled in the first and singled in the fourth and sixth, but admitted he had a tough sleeping Friday night.You dont want to come in and strike out four or five times, he said. You want to do something special.Miami, which committed three errors, has lost seven of eight and fell to .500 for the first time since May 1.Christian Yelichs two-run double and a sacrifice fly by Derek Dietrich gave Miami the early lead, but Kipnis home run cut the lead to 3-2. Roberto Perez tied the score in the second with an RBI double.Lindor doubled to lead off the third and scored on Carlos Santanas single, giving Cleveland the lead. Abraham Almontes sacrifice fly added another run.Fernandezs night ended in the sixth. Lindors RBI single gave Cleveland a 6-3 lead. A throwing error by Suzuki from right field on the hit led to another run.Fernandez, who also allowed a career-high six extra base hits, fell to 3-6 on the road.I was thinking about rolling the ball to the plate and seeing maybe who they were going to hit it to, he said. I got hit. I got hit really hard, but you learn from it.THE DAY AFTERThe Marlins were unhappy with the umpires during Fridays 6-2 loss. Manager Don Mattingly thought Kipnis struck out on a 3-2 pitch in the first inning, but it was ruled he checked his swing and Cleveland scored three runs. First base coach Perry Hill was ejected in the ninth and Mattingly was still upset following the game.Mattingly took a much calmer approach Saturday.Ive talked to the league and thats just pretty much where Id like to leave it, he said. No reason to keep going. Youre mad about it last night. It doesnt help it today. Its time to move forward.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins: OF Marcell Ozuna (sore left wrist) missed his third straight game.Indians: C Yan Gomes (separated shoulder) was 2 for 3 as the DH for Double-A Akron on Friday.UP NEXTMarlins: RHP Tim Koehler will start the series finale Sunday.

CLEVELAND -- The old guys are back under center for the Cleveland Browns and the New York Jets, aware theyre not part of the future.So Josh McCown and Ryan Fitzpatrick will do what they can to save the present on Sunday when the Jets (2-5) visit star-crossed Cleveland (0-7).New York coach Todd Bowles benched the 33-year-old Fitzpatrick after the veteran threw 11 interceptions while leading the Jets to a woeful 1-5 start. Geno Smith stepped in with his first start since the 2014 season finale and didnt even last a half, going down with a knee injury in the second quarter against Baltimore.With Smith being placed on injured reserve with a torn anterior cruciate ligament, its back to Fitzpatrick. For now at least.I guess you never say never in the NFL, Fitzpatrick said. You just dont know whats going to happen. It was a difficult week for me and I said that to (the media) and said that to my teammates and everybody, but thats behind us. Its over. Nobody in this league feels sorry for you.The Jets certainly wont get any sympathy from Cleveland, which has seen the habitually revolving door at quarterback speed up at an almost comical rate. Two months into the season, 49 players have attempted at least nine passes. Six of them are Browns.Yes, six. No other team has used more than three.And now the job goes back to the 37-year-old McCown, who returns for the first time since breaking his collarbone in a Week 2 loss to Baltimore. McCown replaces rookie Cody Kessler, who is dealing with a concussion sustained in last weeks loss to Cincinnati.If (McCown) is out there, it means he is the best guy standing right now, Browns coach Hue Jackson said. Will it be a boost? It is a boost just to have any of our quarterbacks playing right now.Everybody wants to talk about the interceptions, Jackson said of Fitzpatrick. That happens sometimes. People go through that. I think he has gotten himself back upright, and playing and knows what to do and how to do it. He is a big challenge.Other things to look for as Cleveland tries to avoid its worst start in 31 years against New York and its on again/off again/ on again bearded quarterback:LOOK WHAT WE FOUND!: After entering last Sunday tied for 31st in the NFL with four takeaways, the Jets defense got two interceptions -- on consecutive Ravens possessions. Marcus Williams had the only other two interceptions this season, and they came in the first two games. New York is now tied for 26th in the leaggue in defensive takeaways.dddddddddddd. Thats after the Jets finished tied for third in the league with 30 overall in 2015.We struggled early on to force turnovers as a defense, but were known to force turnovers, cornerback Darrelle Revis said. We were one of the top defenses in the league last year. Once one comes, they start coming in bunches.LITTLE RESISTANCE: For all the hand-wringing over the quarterback situation in Cleveland, the bigger issue with the Browns is the other side of the ball. Cleveland has given up 400 yards or more five times already and ranks 30th in yards allowed and points allowed. Jackson became so infuriated while watching the Bengals race up and down the field last week on their way to 559 yards in a 31-17 Cincinnati win he reamed out the defense and spent the final minutes of the game with his headset off in disgust.FORTE REBOUNDS: Matt Forte shook off an early-season slump to show hes still got some moves with the football. The Jets running back rushed for 100 yards and a touchdown on 30 carries against the Ravens, who entered as the No. 1 rush defense. It was his second 100-yard game with New York and he also caught a TD pass, his first as a member of the Jets.After a solid start with 196 yards and three touchdowns on 52 carries in his first two games, Forte ran for just 164 yards and no TDs on 50 carries in the four games that followed.Whether its running or catching the ball, it doesnt matter if I get 30, 25, 20 (touches) or whatever it is or however it shakes out, Forte said. Im just trying to get positive yards, keep the chains moving, score touchdowns so we can score points and let our defense do what they do.BETTER DAYS: The latest iteration of the Browns has made the playoffs once since the franchises return in 1999. It will pay tribute to better days when it honors the 1986 team that went 12-4 and reached the AFC championship game. More than two dozen members of the 1986 club will be on hand, including coach Marty Schottenheimer, quarterback Bernie Kosar, running back Earnest Byner and linebacker Clay Matthews.
