TORONTO - Grady Sizemore hit a two-run double in the 10th inning, and the Cleveland Indians beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-3 Thursday.

John McDonald and Matt Lawton each hit a home run for the Indians, who have won two straight games following a four-game losing streak.

Sizemore ended a 1-for-11 skid with his double. The Indians, whose slump dropped them eight games behind first-place Minnesota in the AL Central, now trail by seven games.

"We've been struggling lately, but it's nice to get these last two games going into a big series against Chicago," said Sizemore, whose team also trails the White Sox in the AL Central and will play the first of four weekend games against them today.

Ben Broussard and Jody Gerut singled in the 10th before Sizemore doubled to left off Kerry Ligtenberg (1-4). McDonald followed with an RBI single.
