LOS ANGELES -- Knuckleballer Steven Wright dazzled in a three-hitter, Mookie Betts had one of Bostons three homers and the Red Sox cruised to a 9-0 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night with David Ortiz out of the lineup in an NL park.Wright (13-5) had nine strikeouts in his third complete game this season. He retired 15 in a row during one stretch and won his fifth straight decision.Sandy Leon hit a two-run homer in the fourth and had four RBI. The switch-hitting Leon has had an outstanding summer, batting .467 in June and .355 in July.Travis Shaw also homered, connecting for the 14th time this season.Dodgers starter Scott Kazmir (9-5) has lost two straight since a 13-start unbeaten streak. He allowed four runs on five hits in 5 1/3 innings.Betts hit a solo home run in the third inning, his 23rd of the year, and Shaw, who replaced Dustin Pedroia in the lineup after Pedroia left the game with a left shin bruise, hit a solo homer in the eighth to give Boston a 5-0 lead.Ortiz wasnt in the lineup, but he was on the field as the Dodgers honored him in a pregame ceremony. Legendary broadcaster Vin Scully narrated a video tribute while Ortiz stood with former teammates Nomar Garciaparra, Adrian Gonzalez and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts.The Dodgers presented Ortiz with a $10,000 check to his foundation, The David Ortiz Childrens Fund. Gonzalez and his wife, Betsy, matched the donation.Ortiz is expected back in the lineup Saturday. Hell play first base.I think that the risk and the reward is high, manager John Farrell said. David was on the field last year in interleague play. We had held off for obvious reasons, but with a right-hander in there (Saturday) sandwiched by two left-handers, (we) felt like it was a good day to get him on the field.Pedroia was hit by Kazmirs pitch in the shin in the third inning and is day-to-day.WELCOME TO TOWNNewly acquired outfielder Josh Reddick got his first taste of driving in Los Angeles traffic going to the stadium from Glendale, a Los Angeles suburb.For me it took four entrances and three wrong turns to get here, but I made it, Reddick said. Ill learn eventually.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: Ryan Hanigan was forced to leave Thursday nights game against the Mariners after taking a pitch off his left ankle. For Friday night, he was available only in the case of an emergency. Boston claimed Bryan Holaday off waivers from the Texas Rangers to solidify its catching corps.Dodgers: Ace Clayton Kershaw (back) and outfielder Trayce Thompson (lower back) will both be out until at least September. ... Bud Norris (mid-back strain) will be placed on the disabled list to make room for Ross Stripling, who will start in his place on Saturday.MINOR LEAGUE WATCHDodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig has yet to report to Triple-A Oklahoma City. Roberts said he hadnt reported yet because hes still got some loose ends to tie up, but hell be there. When asked what those were, Roberts said: I dont know. Thats his business, right? Puig was told before the trade deadline that he would either be traded or sent to the minor leagues.UP NEXTRed Sox: LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (2-4, 5.91 ERA) has a 2.63 ERA in four starts since being recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket on July 16.Dodgers: RHP Ross Stripling (2-3, 4.14 ERA) gets his first start since May 19.

Philip Rivers Chargers Jersey ., for the next three years with the signings on Monday of Daryl Townsend and Michael Carter. Derwin James Youth Jersey . Patrice Bergeron and Daniel Paille scored 20 seconds apart a few minutes after Stamkos was taken off the ice on a stretcher with a broken right leg, and the Bruins beat the Lightning 3-0 on Monday afternoon. http://www.chargersauthenticofficialonline.com/ . LOUIS -- Attorneys for the St. Nasir Adderley Womens Jersey . -- Aaron Murray threw for 408 yards and three touchdowns, ran for another score, and led No. Nasir Adderley Jersey . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. OAKLAND, Calif. -- Raul Alcantara tried to be perfect and he was anything but in a forgettable major league debut for the promising prospect.He hit three batters and walked another in the first inning, surrendered a home run in the second and was done for the day after the third.Alcantara (0-1) quickly fell into a three-run hole and the Oakland Athletics late comeback attempt fell short in a 10-7 loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Monday.I think it was because I was trying to make perfect pitches, Alcantara said.The 23-year-old right-hander also had a balk in the third that put Andrelton Simmons on third after a double before he scored on Nick Buss second sacrifice fly.It marked the first time in 86 years an As pitcher had three hit batsmen and a balk -- Howard Ehmke on April 27, 1930 -- not the kind of stat Alcantara wanted to start his big league career.Its his first big league start, and then you hit a guy and you hit another guy, you get spooked, As manager Bob Melvin said. But toward the end of his outing we saw the stuff that I think were going to see.Alcantara allowed five runs and five hits with no strikeouts.Kole Calhoun hit a solo home run in the second inning and Albert Pujols had a two-run double in the fourth in the Angels seventh win in their last nine road games.Khris Davis hit his 35th homer leading off the seventh to pull Oakland within 8-7, but his ninth-inning error in left field allowed Simmons to score an insurance run.In the seventh, Ryon Healy singled to put the tying run aboard when Jose Valdez entered as the Angels fourth reliever. He retired pinch-hitter Chad Pinder on a fly ball before Jake Smolinskis single and a walk to Bruce Maxwell loaded the bases. But Marcus Semien flied out.Valdez (1-1) earned his first major league win before former As closer Andrew Bailey finished for the Angels in a second straight game. It was just his second save since 2013 with the Red Sox.We cracked the door for those guys with walks, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said.Valencia hit a two-run homer in the first for the As, who were nearly no-hit a day earlier by Boston and didnt have their first baserunner until tthe sixth inning Saturday against Red Sox ace Rick Porcello.ddddddddddddJoey Wendle had his first career RBI on a single in the fourth, when Maxwell added a two-run double one out later.Smolinskis over-the-shoulder running catch in center on Kaleb Colwarts drive to end the first likely saved Alcantara at least two more runs.DOOLITTLES RETURNAs LHP Sean Doolittle received cheers when he took the mound in the seventh for his first appearance since June 25. The closer missed 59 games with a strained throwing shoulder, but he changed his walk-up music to Metallicas Disposable Heroes. For years, it had been the heavy metal bands Fight Fire with Fire.I was wondering how it was going to go over. I know some people are pretty attached to it, Doolittle said. I kept the same band from the same era, but it was a song I was listening to a lot while I was on the rehab assignment and I liked it, so I switched it. Kind of a new chapter I guess.TRAINERS ROOMAngels: Pitcher Matt Shoemaker underwent surgery late Sunday after being struck in the right side of the head on a line drive by Seattles Kyle Seager. Los Angeles athletic trainer Adam Nevala is staying with Shoemaker until he is able to travel to Southern California later in the week.Athletics: RHP Sonny Gray played catch from 120 feet as he recovers from a strained right forearm, and is scheduled to do so again Tuesday. It wont be determined whether he will pitch again in 2016 until he is able to throw off a mound, but the As will be cautious with their star pitcher. ... Rehabbing pitchers Felix Doubront (left elbow) and Chris Bassitt (right elbow) played catch out to 90 feet Monday as they both recover from Tommy John surgery.UP NEXTAngels: RHP Ricky Nolasco (5-12) is coming off his first win for the Angels after being acquired in an Aug. 1 trade from the Twins.
