(AP) -- CLEVELAND (AP) - Stephen Strasburg learned life on the road isn't always smooth.

Washington's rookie sensation had more trouble with Cleveland's mound than Indians hitters while lasting 5 1-3 innings during his second major league start, leading the Nationals to a 9-4 victory Sunday.

Coming off a 14-strikeout debut, Strasburg (2-0) allowed just two hits - one a home run by Travis Hafner - and struck out eight.

But he walked five before leaving to a chorus of boos in the sixth as Washington ended Cleveland's four-game winning streak.
