BALTIMORE -- Its tough enough to beat the Boston Red Sox these days. Give them an extra out to work with, and the task becomes even more difficult.Boston scored five unearned runs in the sixth inning after a throwing error by first baseman Chris Davis and rolled to a 5-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles 5-1 on Wednesday night.Andrew Benintendi hit a three-run homer for the Red Sox, who will seek to complete a four-game sweep on Thursday. Boston pulled five games ahead of second-place Toronto in the AL East and six in front of Baltimore with 10 games remaining.The Red Sox trailed 1-0 in the sixth before Davis two-out miscue turned the game around.We were given a gift, Boston manager John Farrell said, and we did take every advantage of that extra out.Clay Buchholz (8-10) allowed one run and three hits over seven innings for the Red Sox. Bostons seven-game winning streak, which began with a sweep of the Yankees, is its longest since an identical run early in the 2014 season.The loss kept Baltimore a game behind the Blue Jays for the top AL wild card. The Orioles have lost five of seven, all at home, and scored only nine runs in their last five games.Theyll get it going here, manager Buck Showalter said. If we can get in, I feel real gd about this group.Boston rallied against All-Star reliever Brad Brach, who replaced Ubaldo Jimenez (7-12) with two on and one out in the sixth. Aaron Hill hit a dribbler in front of the mound and beat the throw to first base following a miscommunication between Brach and catcher Matt Wieters.That loaded the bases for Jackie Bradley Jr., who struck out on a 3-2 pitch. Sandy Leon then hit a sharp grounder toward first base at Davis, who rushed an off-balance throw that whisked past Brach, allowing two runs to score.Obviously just didnt make a very gd throw on it, Davis said. Probably a ball I couldve stayed back on and just gone to the bag, but I just reacted and when I went to throw, it just kind of stuck in my hand.Said Brach: I was just heading over to the bag, and when I picked up (sight) of the ball it was just coming a little hard to me and a little bit out of my reach.Benintendi hit the next pitch over the wall in right field.Its frustrating when they dont get a ball past first base, 90 feet away, and two runs score, Brach said. And obviously I need to make a better pitch on the next batter.That all but assured the Red Sox their 12th win in 15 games. They have also won seven of eight on the road.After Boston loaded the bases in the first inning but failed to score, the Orioles capitalized on the same situation in the third when Adam Jones hit a sacrifice fly.The Red Sox again filled the bases in the fourth before Leon bounced into a 3-6-1 double play.The next time Boston loaded the bases, two innings later, the Red Sox finally came through -- albeit with a little help from Davis.YOUNG PHENOMSRed Sox: Benintendi is the latest young player to come through for the Red Sox down the stretch.

A statement from the worlds top-ranked player says all checks "were satisfactory and showed positive evolution" regarding the injury, which contributed to his loss to Stanislas Wawrinka in the final in Melbourne.ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Forward Rickard Rakell, who set career highs in goals and assists last season, has signed a six-year extension with the Anaheim Ducks, the team announced Friday.A source told ESPNs Pierre LeBrun that the deal is worth an average of $3.8 million per season.Rakell, the 30th overall pick of the 2011 NHL entry draft, led the Ducks with seven game-winning goals last season. He finished with 20 goals and 23 assists in 71 games.The restricted free agent didnt participate in training camp while technically holding out for a new deal, although he would have been unable to play anyway after surgery last month related to his appendectomy.The surgery kept Rakell out of the World Cup of Hockey, but the 23-year-old is working out again in Sweden with hopes of returning to hockey before the end of October. He is expected to play on one of the Ducks top two lines.I think its something we both agreed was common ground for the two of us, Ducks general manager Bob Murray said. The injury held us up a little bit. We wanted to be totally comfortable Ricky was going to be OK going forward. Hes over 200 pounds right now and hes skating.Rakells contract, which runs through the 2021-22 season, absorbs two potential seasons of unrestricted free agency.With Rakells deal complete, Murray can turn his full attention to re-signing defenseman Hampus Lindholm, Rakells fellow restricted free agent. Lindholm is still at home in Sweden, depriving the Ducks of an elite, young blueliner as they begin their first season under returning coach Randy Carlyle.Murray had no progress to report on negotiations with Lindholms representatives, but Murray is speaking with them frequently.ddddddddddddTheres lots of different things that could happen with Hampus, Murray said. Were trying hard to get that accomplished. Both sides are talking. We have no idea what that deal is going to be.Murray said he wouldnt necessarily need to trade another player to create rm on his limited payroll for Lindholm. Defenseman Cam Fowler has been widely mentioned in trade rumors.Murray is less optimistic about the health of defenseman Simon Despres, who left their season opener at Dallas on Thursday night with an unspecified upper-body injury.Despres missed large stretches of last season following a concussion, and Murray clearly is concerned about a possible reoccurrence of symptoms. Despres didnt absorb any major hits before leaving in the second period.He was not feeling gd last night, Murray said. Were trying to figure out whats going on with him. He had those problems last year. Something is wrong here, and weve got to get to the bottom of it.After losing their season opener, the Ducks play at Pittsburgh on Saturday, continuing their five-game East Coast road trip before their home opener against Vancouver on Oct. 23.Anaheim also assigned forward Joseph Cramarossa to its AHL affiliate in San Diego on Friday, a day after the Ducks claimed veteran forward Emerson Etem on waivers from Vancouver.The Associated Press also contributed to this story.?
