The Boston Celtics dug themselves too deep of a hole Wednesday night in Miami, and despite a valiant effort late in the fourth quarter, they couldn’t extend their win streak to 17 games after a 104-98 loss to the Heat. Boston had overcome deficits of 10 or more in three straight games entering Wednesday. The C’s clawed back from deficits of 18 (twice), 17, 16 and 13 during the win streak, but Heat guards Goran Dragic and Dion Waiters, who combined for 53 points, were too much to handle late in the game. The 16-game win streak is tied for the fourth-longest in team history. It included a nine-game road win streak (fifth-longest in franchise

Red Sox Wrap: Boston’s Offense Comes Alive Late In 9-6 Win Over Yankees
The Boston Red Sox have been a resilient ball club all season, and that trend continued Friday night against the New York Yankees at Fenway Park. Trailing the Yankees by three in the bottom half of the seventh, the Red Sox rallied for four runs in the inning and tacked on two more in the eighth en route to a 9-6 victory in Game 1 of the weekend series. It was a brief outing for Red Sox starter Drew Pomeranz. The left-hander tossed 3 1/3 scoreless innings before being pulled from the game with back spasms. Boston’s bullpen wasn’t spectacular in relief of Pomeranz, but timely hitting bailed out the lackluster pitching. With

He hadn’t completely cleared Ricky Stenhouse Jr., though, so the two touched, ultimately sending Larson’s No. 42 over the hood of Stenhouse’s No. 17. The current points leader, Larson wasn’t injured in the crash, though it could have ended much worse had his car not returned to
