MINNEAPOLIS -- The young running back was traded away, the third-stringer was picked to start at quarterback, and Clevelands jaded fan base was already pushing this week for the first pick in next years draft. NMD Skor Rea . The Browns havent given up on the season, though. Minnesotas might be slipping away. Jordan Cameron caught three touchdown passes, including the go-ahead grab in the back of the end zone with 51 seconds left, and the Browns kept the Vikings winless with a 31-27 victory Sunday. "If you let the distractions that are outside of the locker room affect the way you play, then you are tanking the season and you will have no chance," said Joe Thomas, the three-time All-Pro left tackle. Brian Hoyer threw for three scores in his second career start, and the Browns (1-2) became the latest team to torch Minnesotas struggling secondary, which lost top cornerback Chris Cook to a groin injury in the first quarter. Hoyer overcame three interceptions to throw for 321 yards, going 30 for 54. Josh Gordon had 10 catches for 146 yards and a touchdown in his season debut, and Cameron had six receptions for 66 yards. "Its just a matter of believing in Brian and believing in ourselves, and we did a good job of that," Cameron said. Christian Ponder ran for two touchdowns for the Vikings (0-3), but he threw an interception, lost a fumble and took his sixth sack on the final play of the game. The Vikings went three-and-out six times, twice in the fourth quarter when they couldve put the game away. Ponder almost hit Jerome Simpson in a crowd at the goal line on the penultimate play, but the Vikings didnt get closer than the 34. "Weve got to look ourselves in the mirror and change this around quickly, because were going to make sure this doesnt steamroll and snowball downhill," Ponder said. After scoring 16 points over the first two games, dealing 2012 first-round draft pick Trent Richardson to Indianapolis and putting Hoyer in for the injured Brandon Weeden, the Browns looked finished. They were behind 7-0 after a long Vikings touchdown drive and a 45-second possession of their own forced a punt. But they held Adrian Peterson to 88 yards and one score on 25 rushes, used a fake punt and a fake field goal in the first half to build a lead and kept the Vikings from scoring after Hoyers first two interceptions. The third one, by Erin Henderson, set up Ponders scramble for 8 yards to tie the game late in the third quarter. The Vikings got Blair Walshs second field goal of the game with 10:47 remaining, but they stalled at the 12 and missed an opportunity there, too. The defence held the Browns without scoring for seven straight possessions, but like last week in the one-point loss at Chicago faltered on the final drive when the failure stung the most. "I dont know if guys underestimated the Browns coming in or what the deal was, but we have to take a long look in the mirror and get better," said defensive end Jared Allen, who was held without a sack or a tackle and was credited with one quarterback pressure against Thomas. The Browns started at their 45 with 3:21 left and finished the commanding march with a 7-yard pass by Hoyer to the corner for Cameron, the budding standout tight end Cameron who has 20 catches for 267 yards and four scores already this year. Hoyer, who played for New England and Arizona after a nondescript career at Michigan State, grew up in a suburb of Cleveland rooting for the Browns. So he knew how the fans were feeling after the Richardson trade. "I used to think that way, too. Hopefully this is a change," Hoyer said. Hoyer, whose wife is due with the couples second child on Oct. 21, joked he hoped he didnt send her into labour early with the wild finish. Trailing by three, the Browns couldve settled for a short tying field goal. But kicker Billy Cundiff was hurting with a quadriceps problem, so that wasnt a guarantee. "I told the guys in the huddle, Lets just go win it right here," Hoyer said. NOTES: Punter/holder Spencer Lanning threw the TD pass to Cameron on the fake FG in the second quarter. He also kicked the last extra point, with Cundiff hurting. According to the NFL, Lanning became the first player since 1968 with a punt, extra point and TD pass in one game. ... The Vikings have been out-sacked by their opponents 10-4. ... Referee Bill Leavy mistakenly penalized the Vikings after coach Leslie Frazier tried to challenge a ruling on a muffed punt in the second quarter. Minnesota should have lost a timeout instead.

A first-round pick in 2012, Stroman pitched a one-run, eight-inning gem to beat the New York Yankees on June 23 and was then solid in a no-decision versus the Chicago White Sox on Saturday. Stroman allowed two runs on just two hits and a pair of walks over 6 2/3 innings, fanning six. The 23-year-old was pulled in the seventh frame after giving up a double and a walk, but reliever Dustin McGowan served up a three-run homer as the White Sox jumped in front. "If you could do things over, you leave [Stroman] in," Jays manager John Gibbons admitted. "But my thinking was, he pitched his butt off, it was kind of uncharted territory, I dont want him to lose the game right there. Thats the way it goes. But you always look back on things like that. I had a plan and it just didnt work." Stroman, a right-hander, is 4-2 with a 4.01 ERA in 11 total appearances on the year. Oakland hurler Tommy Milone will try to stretch his unbeaten streak to 11 starts in a row on Friday afternoon when the Athletics play the second contest of a four-game set with the Toronto Blue Jays. Milone is 6-0 with a 2.87 earned run average since his last loss on MMay 3 and the As are 8-2 over his unbeaten streak. Adidas Superstar Rea. The left-hander lost his first three decisions of the campaign, but now sits at 6-3 on the year with a 3.79 earned run average. Milone has won three of his past four starts, giving up three runs -- two earned -- on four hits and two walks over seven frames of a victory over Miami on Sunday. The 27-year-old is 3-0 with a 3.12 ERA in seven outings at home this year, but has lost both of his previous career meetings with the Blue Jays while yielding 11 earned runs over 13 innings. The Blue Jays fell into a tie for first place in the AL East with Baltimore after losing last nights opener 4-1. It marked Torontos fourth setback in six games and came despite R.A. Dickey giving up four runs -- two earned -- over a complete-game setback. He was outdueled by Oaklands Sonny Gray, who yielded a run over seven innings. Gray struck out five and scattered four hits and three walks to help the As snap a three-game slide. "His curveball was disgusting tonight," said catcher Stephen Vogt on Oaklands website. "It was back to the Sonny Gray that Ive known for the last year and a half. Hes got one of the best curveballs in baseball, and he had it tonight." Toronto swept a three-game series at home from May 23-25 and won two of three in Oakland a season ago. ' ' '
