[Linux] rsync/ssh question

I'm trying to get the following to work:

Three machines: HostA, HostB, HostC.  HostC is in a DMZ and can only be accessed via
SSH from HostB.  I need to transfer directories from HostA to HostC but it cannot
connect directly.

I thought about creating a named pipe on HostB and using that as a conduit. I can
get it to work with tar but not sure how to do so with rsync.

Is there a way to do this directly with rsync over ssh? Suggestions?
