ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- To earn his first major league save, Enny Romero emerged from the bullpen with a one-run lead and one job -- set down Boston slugger David Ortiz for the final out.Romero did it, getting Big Papi to look at strike three Thursday to give the Tampa Bay Rays a 2-1 win over the Red Sox for a four-game split.In a one-run ballgame, I figured at some point we would see David Ortiz come to the plate, Rays manager Kevin Cash said.After Tyler Sturdevant struck out Hanley Ramirez and Jackie Bradley Jr. to begin the ninth, Romero was summoned. Romero sent Ortiz to the ground with a high-and-tight 1-2 fastball, then got him on a called third strike.Romero said he threw a cutter to close out the save. The 25-year-old lefty was in his 65th career game over three seasons.A day earlier, the 40-year-old Ortiz reached 30 home runs and 100 RBI.

He gave up one run and five hits in seven innings.Pomeranz struck out a career-high 11 in six-plus innings.After Betts put the Red Sox up 1-0 on a sacrifice fly in the sixth, Odorizzi avoided a big inning by getting an inning-ending double play from Bradley with the bases loaded.Outstanding damage control, Cash said.Tampa Bay tied it at 1 in the bottom of the sixth when Evan Longoria doubled and scored on Brad Millers single. Miller had 31 RBI since the All-Star break.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: LF Andrew Benintendi (left knee sprain) was put on the 15-day disabled list.

RENTON, Wash. -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton spoke with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell this week about whether officials treat him differently than other quarterbacks when it comes to taking hits in the pocket.Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson (5-foot-11, 215 pounds) is not as big as Newton (6-foot-5, 245 pounds). But he often uses his athleticism to scramble and escape pressure.Wilson was asked Friday if he has ever felt that referees officiate him differently.No, I dont feel that way, Wilson said. I just try to play smart football. I think Ive said this before, but if I didnt want to play football, if I didnt want to get hit, Id be playing tennis. Thats just one of those things -- you know youre going to get hit, and you know youre going to take some tough hits every once in a while, and you have to hang in there. At the same time, its aa rough game, and you always want to make a smart decision and get down, get out of bounds.dddddddddddd.Wilson made it clear that he was only giving his perspective and wasnt familiar with the exact comments made by Newton, who expressed concerns specifically about taking hits when hes in the pocket and not when hes on the run.I havent seen his particular situation, Wilson said. Honestly, I try to stay away from watching ESPN and all that, but I know for me -- trying to get down, slide, get out of bounds, all of that, because those guys are chasing after you.Wilson has drawn one roughing-the-passer penalty this season.Since he became the starter in 2012, the Seahawks have drawn 12 roughing-the-passer penalties, tied for ninth fewest.
