ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The latest memorable night for David Ortiz ended badly for the Boston Red Sox.Ortiz became the oldest player ever to hit 30 homers in a season, but the Tampa Bay Rays came back from a three-run deficit to beat Boston 4-3 in 11 innings Wednesday night and prevent the Red Sox from taking sole possession of first place in the AL East.Its hard to lose a game like that at this time, Ortiz said. You expect to win that kind of game, especially (in) the stage that we are in now. Luke Maile doubled with two out in the 11th and scored from second base after Red Sox pitcher Heath Hembree (4-1) dropped a throw to first on Kevin Kiermaiers grounder. Hembrees throw to the plate beat Maile, but catcher Sandy Leon dropped the ball as Maile slid across with the winning run.Thats kind of a routine 3-to-1 play, Boston manager John Farrell said. Unfortunately it comes at a time where youve got two outs and the guy is on the move and it ends up being the difference in this one.Brad Boxberger (2-0) got the win after one inning of relief.Its fun anytime you can walk off in front of your fans and have a celebration out there on the field. We dont get to do that very much, Kiermaier said. Its a win. Well take it.Boston has won 10 of its last 13 games and remained tied in first with Toronto after the Blue Jays lost 8-2 to the Angels.Bidding to become the majors first 18-game winner, Rick Porcello allowed Evan Longorias tying homer in the eighth before leaving with 7 2/3 innings pitched. It was Longorias 30th homer.Red Sox rookie Andrew Benintendi left the game in the seventh with a left knee sprain after being tagged out by shortstop Matt Duffy on a double play.Its stiff. I can put a little bit of weight (on it), not trying to push it or overdo it, Benintendi said. Come back tomorrow and see how it feels. It was bad baserunning. It shouldnt happen.The 40-year-old Ortiz hit the first pitch he got from starter Matt Andriese in the first inning for a two-run homer. Ortiz is the only player with 30 homers and 100 RBI in each of the past four seasons, and hes the first Red Sox player to drive in 100 runs 10 times.We need that, we need offense, Ortiz said. Weve had a good offense this year and thats whats keeping us alive, so hopefully it continues.Ortiz has 533 home runs, one shy of Jimmie Foxx for 18th on the career list. Ortiz plans to retire at the end of the season.Porcello pitched seven or more innings in a career-high sixth straight start. His 123 pitches were a career high. The right-hander gave up three runs and nine hits while striking out eight, failing to win for only the second time in 11 starts since June 23.Mookie Betts drove in Bostons third run with a third-inning single, one of two hits in his 54th multihit game of the season.ROTATING ROTATIONBoston manager John Farrell said knuckleballer Steven Wright (strained right shoulder) will be reinstated from the 15-day disabled list to start Friday night against Kansas City. LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (left hamstring) will have a bullpen session Thursday, which will help determine where he will be inserted into the rotation. Also to be determined is the role of RHP Clay Buchholz, who was moved out of the bullpen Aug. 13 and made three solid starts. Once we get through (Thursday) well have more clarity, Farrell said.SIX-MAN ROTATION LIKELY FOR RAYSWith Alex Cobb and/or Chase Whitley coming back from injuries and rookie Blake Snell facing limits on his innings, the Rays are considering a six-man rotation down the stretch, and even that would mean removing a current starter from the mix.I think thats probably a good option, manager Kevin Cash said. Were not going to draw straws and say one guys out of the rotation, but were going to have to find a way to get everybody their innings.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: 3B Pablo Sandoval, expected to be ready for spring training next year after having left shoulder surgery in May, has resumed working out at third base. ... RHP Carson Smith (Tommy John surgery) will start throwing in 3 1/2 weeks.Rays: RHP Cobb (Tommy John surgery) will make his final rehab start Saturday for Triple-A Durham and hopes to have his first major league appearance in almost two years during a series Sept. 2-4 against Toronto.UP NEXTLHP Drew Pomeranz will make his eighth start for the Red Sox on Thursday against Rays RHP Jake Odorizzi, who is 5-0 with a 1.64 ERA in six starts since the All-Star break.

The victory improved the Czech pairs impressive cup doubles record to 14-1. The long and winding road to the mandatory and much-anticipated fight between unified middleweight titleholder Gennady Golovkin and secondary titlist Daniel Jacobs is coming to an end.The WBA on Wednesday sent a letter to both camps to tell them that they had seven more days to make a deal. If a deal is not reached, the WBA said it would call for a purse bid for the fight, meaning it would go to an auction. The promoter with the highest offer would gain promotional control of the bout.Im still in discussions with [Jacobs adviser] Al [Haymon] trying to finalize the details of the fight, but the WBA sent us a notice [on Wednesday] saying that the contracts have to be submitted within seven days or they will call the purse bid, Golovkin promoter Tom Loeffler of K2 Promotions told ESPN on Thursday.The WBA had held off on issuing a deadline before calling a purse bid, hoping the camps would iron out a deal. But the talks have dragged on for months, even before both fighters defended their belts in one day apart in September.In his fourth defense, Jacobs (32-1, 29 KOs) knocked out Sergio Mora in the seventh round of their rematch Sept. 9. Golovkin (36-0, 33 KOs) stopped Kell Brook in the fifth round Sept. 10 to retain his title for the 17th time. The knockout was Golovkins 23rd in a row.Loeffler declined to say why there was a delay in making a deal, but his reputation is as a deal-maker. For example, he and Brook promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing made the Golovkin-Brook deal in about two days.The talks for Golovkin-Jacobs have dragged on for three months, although Haymon typically goes to the bitter end to make a deal. Relative to major fights, though, this one is not complicated, given that it is a non-pay-per-view mandatory bout.Shouuld they make a deal, Golovkin-Jacobs is ticketed for HBO on March 18 at Madison Square Garden in New York, provided the promoters can secure an insurance policy for the event in the wake of the states new and more stringent insurance laws covering boxing.ddddddddddddGolovkin, 34, is a big draw in New York, having sold out Madison Square Garden for his October 2015 title unification fight against David Lemieux.Jacobs, 29, is from Brooklyn.If Loeffler and Haymon do not make a deal and the WBA orders the purse bid, Loeffler said it would probably come within two weeks of the order.Usually, they give you 10 days notice, he said. Thats the standard, but depending on everyones schedule it could be something like 12 days or 14 days.Loeffler said he remained confident he and Haymon would strike a deal. They were able to make a deal for Golovkins mandatory defense against Haymon client Dominic Wade, whom GGG knocked out in the second round on April 23.I think its always been likely well get a deal done, Loeffler said. Every discussion Ive had with Al has been that Jacobs wants the fight and that its a matter of finalizing the deal points, which is what were working on now.Should the fight go to a purse bid, Golovkin is entitled to 75 percent of the winning bid, with the remaining 25 percent going to Jacobs. Loeffler has said all along that their side is open to giving Jacobs more than 25 percent, but not the 40 percent he was seeking.The fight was originally penciled in for Dec. 10, but when Loeffler and Haymon were unable to make a timely deal they moved off the date and decided to aim for the first quarter of 2017.
