BOSTON -- Mookie Betts wasnt pleased with his recent swings at the plate.A little tweaking and he joined elite company in Red Sox history.Betts hit three home runs and drove in a career-best eight runs, joining Hall of Famer Ted Williams as the only Red Sox players in over 100 years with a pair of three-homer games in a season and powering Boston over the Arizona Diamondbacks 16-2 Sunday.These last couple of days I was off, Betts said. I basically just swung my way out of it.The Red Sox said Betts joined Williams, who had two three-homer games in 1957, as the only Red Sox players since 1913 to accomplish the feat.It makes you feel pretty good anytime your names said with his. It means youve done something well, said Betts, who matched David Ortiz with the club lead with 26 homers.Dustin Pedroia had five hits and Jackie Bradley Jr. hit a two-run homer for Boston.Rick Porcello (16-3) became the first Red Sox pitcher in 70 years to open a season 12-0 at Fenway Park as Boston completed a three-game sweep of Arizona.Zack Greinke (11-4) was chased in the second inning.The guys swung the bats tremendous today against one of the best pitchers in the game, Porcello said. I threw strikes to get us back in the dugout as quick as possible.Betts had two chances to hit a record-tying fourth homer, but lined out to right and then grounded out in the eighth. The crowd chanted `Lets Go Mookie! before his final at-bat.His teammates wanted to see him become the 17th player in major league history with four homers in a game.They told me try and swing for it, Betts said.Betts other three-homer game came against Baltimore on May 31.What was billed as a marquee pitching matchup turned into a rout early when Greinke was tagged for three homers and nine runs in 1 2/3 innings.It just seemed like my stuff was really flat today, he said. Most times, guys dont hit my off-speed very good, but they hit all my off-speed pitches today.Porcello allowed one run on three hits over seven innings and became the first Boston pitcher since Dave Boo Ferriss to begin a year by winning his first 12 decisions in Fenway.Betts two-run homer in the first cleared the Green Monster and made it 2-0.His second, a three-run shot into the first row of Monster seats, keyed a seven-run second. Bradley hit his off the Pesky Pole, and rookie Andrew Benintendi and Pedroia each drove in a run during the inning.Betts third homer was a three-run shot that caromed off a billboard above the Monster in a six-run fifth.Michael Bourn had a solo homer and RBI single for the Diamondbacks. They had won four straight before being swept.It was the second-most runs Greinke has allowed in his career. He gave up 11 in a start for Kansas City, against the Diamondbacks on June 10, 2005.They just hit everything he threw up there, Arizona manager Chip Hale said.TRAINERS ROOMDiamondbacks: C Welington Castillo is due back Monday from bereavement leave.Red Sox: Bradley was in the lineup after getting Saturday off to rest and nurse a sore big toe. . Manager John Farrell said after the game that RHP Steven Wright (jammed pitching shoulder) would go on the DL and Hanley Ramirez on the bereavement list.HUGE MILESTONEPedroia had his fifth career five-hit game, most in club history.BIG REQUESTRecently acquired Red Sox C Bryan Holadays preschool-age son walked over to Ortiz in the clubhouse, looked up and asked: Can you teach me how to hit home runs every time?Big Papi smiled and replied: You want to learn how to hit home runs every time? Well work on that.UP NEXTDiamondbacks: LHP Robbie Ray (5-11, 4.57 ERA) faces RHP Bartolo Colon (10-6, 3.35) Monday in the opener of a three-game series against the Mets.Red Sox: LHP Drew Pomeranz (0-2, 5.26) is set to start when they open their four-city road trip.

LOS ANGELES -- Injuries remain sore points for the Utah Jazz and Los Angeles Lakers. Both will attempt to overcome them when they meet Monday night at Staples CenterPoint guard Jose Calderon (right hamstring strain) was the latest Laker to come up lame. Calderon, who hurt himself in Saturdays loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, wont play against the Jazz. Calderon was starting for the injured DAngelo Russell (sore right knee). Russell isnt expected back for at least another week.In addition, the Lakers again will be without Nick Young (strained left calf), who is possibly on the shelf for another one to three weeks.Lakers forward Larry Nance (right knee contusion), who missed Saturdays loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, is listed as questionable for Mondays contest. Nance sat out Saturday after being injured late in Fridays rout by the Toronto Raptors.Still, the Lakers (10-12) continue to carry a positive vibe with their surprising start.Having the injuries we had, it wouldve been easy to just give in (Saturday), said Lakers coach Luke Walton said after the loss to the Grizzlies, according to the Los Angeles Times. Our guys really competed and played hard. Down the stretch they got to a couple loose balls that turned into big plays. We had our chances. On the road in the NBA, thats really all you can ask for is to have a chance to win the game.Despite some key contributors ailing, the Jazz (12-9) have won five of their last six games. Their latest triumph was a 105-98 decision over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday. Utah almost blew a 23-point lead in the fourth quarter before securring the victory.dddddddddddd Gordon Hayward scored 21 of his 32 points in the third quarter to pace the Jazz. It was the third straight game the 6-8 forward has topped 30 points.I found some energy after halftime, said Hayward, who leads the team in scoring at 22.8 points per game, according to DeseretNews. com. I think we really started to guard. I was able to get some easy shots, some open looks and then the basket gets a little wider when you knock down a couple in a row.Utah prevailed without point guard George Hill (toe) and forward Derrick Favors. Hill wont play against the Lakers, missing his third game in a row, but could return Tuesday night when the Jazz plays the Phoenix Suns.Hills production has been missed. He is scoring 20 points per game, second to Hayward. He also is shooting 53.4 percent from the floor and 45.6 percent from 3-point range.Favors has been troubled with a knee problem for much of the season. He missed the previous nine games and is expected to return against the Lakers.Forward Alec Burks also has been unavailable for Utah. Burks underwent arthroscopic ankle surgery in November and is out indefinitely.The absences havent hurt the production of center Rudy Gobert. Gobert is averaging 10.6 points and 11 rebounds per game (seventh in the NBA). Gobert is the league leader in field-goal percentage at 64.2. He is third in blocks with an average of 2.52.Utah won the initial encounter 96-89 on Oct. 27 at Salt Lake City. ' ' '
