ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Rickard Rakells whereabouts during training camp was a topic of amusement for Kevin Bieksa and the Anaheim Ducks.Rakells presence since returning to the ice has been no laughing matter for their opponents.Rakell had two goals and an assist, John Gibson stopped 21 shots and the Ducks beat the Arizona Coyotes 5-1 on Friday night.Rakell picked up his second three-point game in three games since agreeing to a new long-term contract Oct. 14, scoring on a 2-on-1 break in the first period and tapping in a misplayed puck in the third.Hes fresh. Hes been sitting around doing nothing for two months in Sweden doing who knows what in Stockholm, sitting in a cafe, Bieksa joked. Weve been grinding it out in training camp and skating, so I expect him to be contributing.The reality was not quite as humorous. Not only was Rakell waiting to finalize a new deal, he was still recovering from a bout of appendicitis he endured at the end of last season and needed surgery in September to have scar tissue removed.Rakell has shown no ill effects since returning to the ice, though he thinks his timing and ability to be consistently strong on the puck are lacking.I still think that Im trying to find my groove a little bit, Rakell said. I think its a process. Right now things are going my way with scoring and stuff, but as long as I keep getting scoring chances and making stuff happen out there Im satisfied.Antoine Vermette added a goal and an assist, and Bieksa and Jakob Silfverberg also scored for the Ducks, who are 5-2-1 since starting with four losses (0-3-1).Jamie McGinn scored for Arizona. Louis Domingue stopped 18 of 21 shots in the first period before being replaced by Justin Peters, who gave up two goals on 12 shots over the final 40 minutes.It was a terrible start to the game, McGinn said. I feel bad for Louis, we hung him out to dry.The Ducks were more than satisfied after the first period. After stewing over consecutive home defeats in which they were outscored 9-1, the Ducks responded with a dominant opening 20 minutes in which they thoroughly controlled play while building a 3-0 lead.Bieksa and Rakell scored 2:54 apart midway through the first to get Anaheim started. Silfverberg wrapped up the scoring blitz in the opening period, turning Vermettes clever backhand pass into a nifty backhanded goal with 45 seconds remaining.Were happy with that response, Bieksa said. We just came in with the right mindset and played a good solid game.Ondrej Kase recorded his first point in his second career game with an assist on Vermettes goal with 6:37 left in the second period. The 20-year old rookie from the Czech Republic made his first start and played 16:11.McGinn got the Coyotes on the scoreboard with about 3 1/2 minutes left in the second. It was his third goal in six games.The Ducks had a scare in the first period when Max Domi dropped Ryan Kesler in a fight with one punch. Kesler put a hit on Domi that resulted in a roughing penalty, and the son of longtime enforcer Tie Domi responded with a devastating uppercut when they dropped the gloves. Kesler was helped to the locker room, but did return in the second period and had an assist on Rakells second goal.Game notes Ducks C Ryan Getzlaf and LW Nick Ritchie each missed a second straight game with upper-body injuries. ... Coyotes C Martin Hanzal was scratched for the second straight game with a lower-body injury.UP NEXTCoyotes: Wrap their two-game road trip at Colorado on Tuesday.Ducks: Wrap their three-game homestand against Calgary on Sunday.

BOSTON -- The Boston Red Sox had plenty of chances to add a little space at the top of the AL East.The Red Sox failed to cash in on nearly every one, falling to Baltimore 6-3 Tuesday night as the Orioles pulled within two runs of Boston for the division lead.After winning 12-2 Monday in the series opener, the Red Sox sputtered through Tuesday night. The Red Sox were 1 for 10 with runners in scoring position and left nine runners on base.Five runs in Fenway Park is nothing. We didnt think that was going to be enough to win tonight, said Travis Shaw, who was 3 for 4 and scored a run for Boston. Unfortunately offensively, there was a couple times we had guys in scoring position and we just didnt come up with the hits.Xander Bogaerts hit a solo homer for the Red Sox.

Hardy hit a three-run homer and Nolan Reimold added a two-run shot for Baltimore during a five-run second inning.Jonathan Schoop added a leadoff homer in the ninth for Baltimore.

He continued to struggle since a July trade from San Diego, falling to 2-5 with Boston.I just got in some tight spots and didnt make pitches when I needed to. Thats about how it went, Pomeranz said.Pomeranz was pulled with nobody out in the third after Manny Machados leadoff single to left. After needing just 11 pitches to set down the Orioles in order in the first, Pomeranz labored through 45 pitches in the second.Mark Trumbo led off the second with a single and Chris Davis walked, then with one out Hardy broke the scoreless tie with a towering homer that bounced off one of the signs above the Green Monster in left field.

He fell behind hitters and Baltimores batters took advantage. Hardy and Reimold both drove 3-2 pitches for their second-inning homers.Its pretty frustrating, Pomeranz said. I was trying to get in on some of those guys and the ball was just shooting back over toward the middle of the plate.Pomeranzs previous low for the season was three innings July 20 against San Francisco in his first start since joining Boston in a trade with San Diego.BOSTON BULLPENManager John Farrell credited Boston relievers for keeping the Red Sox in the game despite the offensive struggles.
