WASHINGTON -- Giancarlo Stanton hit his NL-leading 15th home run and also doubled and singled in his latest power performance at Nationals Park, leading the Miami Marlins over Washington 3-2 Monday. Stanton doubled and scored in the first inning, then launched a long two-run homer in the third. Stanton is hitting .333 (43 for 129) with 14 home runs and 27 RBIs in Washington since his career began in 2010. He has homered at Nationals Park more than any other visiting player during that time. The Marlins improved to 7-17 on the road; theyre 20-8 at home. Nathan Eovaldi (4-2) pitched 6 1-3 innings, giving up two runs and three hits. Steve Cishek worked the ninth for his 11th save. Adam LaRoche homered for the Nationals, who had won 12 of their last 13 against Miami at home. Tanner Roark (3-3) went seven innings. Eovaldi earned his first road win since Sept. 1, 2013. He has won consecutive starts for the first time in his career. Washington trailed 3-0 and had only one hit before Jayson Werth singled with one out in the sixth. LaRoche, in his second game back from the disabled list, homered into the second deck in right to cut the deficit to 3-2. Eovaldi left after hitting Nate McLouth with one out in the seventh. Mike Dunn retired pinch-hitter Tyler Moore and Denard Span, reliever A.J. Ramos pitched a perfect eighth. The Marlins got to Roark for a two-out run in the first when Stanton doubled to right just beyond the reach of Werth and scored on Casey McGehees single. McGehee is hitting .434 (23 for 53) with runners in scoring position. Stanton and the Marlins struck again with two outs in the third. After Derek Dietrich was hit by a pitch, Stanton launched the first offering he saw to straightaway centre, with the ball bouncing high off a wall beyond the wall. Miami had a chance for more in the sixth when McGehee doubled with one out, but he was picked off second by Roark.

Roger Maris Jersey .ca. Hi Kerry, Welcome back! Im sure you heard Peter Forsbergs comments last week regarding Canadian referees in the gold medal game. Seems to me that he was questioning the integrity and impartiality. Jose Martinez Cardinals Jersey . There is no argument that the line of Pacioretty, David Desharnais and Thomas Vanek was one of the hottest in the NHL leading into the post-season, and they did combine for three goals and seven points, but it was the depth of all four lines that helped propel Montreal.NEWARK, N.J. - The struggling Pittsburgh Penguins could have given up against the New Jersey Devils.They trailed by a goal in the third period, and goalie Cory Schneider was stopping everything and getting bailed out by some pings off the posts.But the Penguins hung in and pulled out a much-needed win.Defenceman Simon Despres scored 2:21 into overtime, and the Penguins rallied to beat the Devils 2-1 on Friday night.The way things have been going lately, we could have just accepted this as a loss, but we all stayed with it, said Chris Kunitz, who forced overtime with a power-play goal with 3:11 left in regulation. That was the key. We stayed with it, stayed focused, kept the pressure on.The loss spoiled a magnificent performance by Schneider, who made 41 saves.The winning goal came after Schneider made a close-in stop on Brandon Sutton. The Penguins kept the puck in the zone, and Despres shot from inside the blue line beat a screened Schneider.I didnt get a great look at it, Schneider said. I think he came one way and shot it back the other through a screen. It just got a piece of the post and went in. It was a nice shot.Devils president and general manager Lou Lamoriello said Schneiders performance was one of the best he has seen by a goalie in a while.He gave us a chance to win, more than a chance to win, Lamoriello said. Its a shame he didnt get the win. Certainly the team would get the win, but he deserved a better fate.Marc-Andre Fleury made 13 saves for the Penguins, who fell behind 1-0 when Devils forward Steve Bernier scored on a wraparound 6:08 into the third period.New Jersey failed to tie its season-best, three-game winning streak. Pittsburgh won for the second time in seven games (2-3-2).We talked about that, the last couple of days, that most importantly, we had to stay with it, Penguins coach Mike Johnston said. We were playing our game. We played a good game. We didnt flinch after they scored. We did whatever it took to get the game-tying goal.But when (Kris) Letangs shot hit the post (with 7 minutes left), you have to wonder whether its going to be our night.Schneider stopped the first 37 Pittsburgh shots and seemed on the vverge of his third shutout of the season when Peter Harrold took a high-sticking penalty with 3:29 left in regulation.ddddddddddddThe Penguins needed only 18 seconds to tie it 1-1. Sidney Crosby, who had been stopped point blank earlier in the period by Schneider on a nice setup by David Perron, took a shot from the right circle that hit Schneider in the chest. Defenceman Adam Larsson couldnt clear the puck, and Kunitz fired the rebound into the net for his 15th goal.They kept coming, Schneider said. You have to give Pittsburgh credit. They put a lot of pressure on and took advantage of their opportunities late. We just couldnt get that extra goal or keep them at bay long enough.Bernier had given the Devils the lead with a goal that was aided by the leg of linesman Ryan Galloway.Berniers dump-in into the Penguins zone hit Galloway, allowing Bernier to retrieve the puck. He skated past defenceman Robert Bortuzzo, went behind the net, came out the other side and banked the puck into the net off Fleurys skate.Schneider kept the Devils in the game in the opening two periods, stopping 20 shots, including a breakaway by Sutter in the first and a backhander by Crosby after a sweeping move from the corner in the second.We have to be way better, we cant keep relying on Schneids and the other goalies to keep us in there the whole game, Devils forward Patrik Elias said. Were not taking charge. Were not skating well. Were just sitting back. We have to be hungrier tomorrow.NOTES: Evgeni Malkin of the Penguins missed his fourth straight game with a lower-body injury. ... Penguins F Chris Kunitz played in his 700th NHL game. ...
