THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Rams want Eric Dickerson to know hes welcome anytime on their sideline or just about anywhere else he wants to go.Rams COO Kevin Demoff tweeted reassurance at the Hall of Fame running back on Monday, shortly after Dickerson claimed he was no longer allowed on the sideline due to his criticism of the team.Coach Jeff Fisher doubled down during his weekly news conference, saying Dickerson is welcome to attend practice or sit in on team meetings with the Rams (4-7). Fisher had a warm phone conversation with Dickerson just last week, he said.I dont know where thats coming from with Eric, Fisher said. Hes always welcome. Hes welcome in the building. Id love to have him come in. Id love to have him come to practice. Id love to have him come into meetings. I mean, Eddie George has been in my meetings more than Eric Dickerson has. Id love to have him here.Dickerson made the claim on his radio show on KLAC-AM, saying he had been told by an unnamed Rams official that he makes the players uncomfortable because of his criticism of the team. Dickerson worked as a Rams broadcaster during the preseason, and he does a weekly 2-hour radio show largely about the relocated franchise, which has lost six of its last seven games to fall to 4-7.Demoff said he reached out to Dickerson to find out how any miscommunication could have occurred. The executive insisted Dickerson is a valued member of the Rams family.We all share his love for our team and our fans, Demoff tweeted.Dickerson played his first four-plus NFL seasons with the Rams, setting the NFLs single-season rushing record with 2,105 yards in 1984 while they played in Anaheim. He lives in the Los Angeles area and remains a beloved figure to football fans at the Coliseum, where dozens of his replica jerseys still appear at every Rams home game.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFLDerek Barnett Jersey .

NEW YORK -- Ryan Hanigan, Travis Shaw and Xander Bogaerts homered off Michael Pineda to back knuckleballer Steven Wright, and the Boston Red Sox opened the second half with a 5-3 win over the New York Yankees on Friday night.Hanigans third-inning homer was his first since last Aug. 19 off Clevelands Corey Kluber, and the ball was caught by reliever Robbie Ross Jr., who stuck out his cap to snag it in the visitors bullpen in left field. Shaw hit a two-run homer in the fifth, and Bogaerts made it 5-0 with a two-run drive in the sixth.Wright (11-5), who began the night with an AL-leading 2.68 ERA, was a first-time All-Star at age 31 but didnt pitch in Tuesday nights game and was moved up in Bostons rotation for the series opener. He retired his first 14 batters before Alex Rodriguez hit a slow hopper the pitcher couldnt come up with on a bare-hand try about 45 feet from the plate on the third base side.New York closed the gap with a three-run sixth, when Wright lost the strike zone. Carlos Beltran had a two-run single, and Brian McCann hit an RBI grounder as first baseman Hanley Ramirez bounced his throw to second, eliminating the possibility of an inning-ending double play.Wright won for the eighth time in nine decisions, allowing three runs and three hits in six innings. Brad Ziegler and Ross followed with an inning apiece, and Koji Uehara finished the four-hitter for his fifth save, his third since closer Craig Kimbrel hurt a knee.Before the game, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said the decision to buy or sell ahead of the Aug. 1 trade deadline likely will be determined by this 10-game homestand. New York (44-45) is under .500 after the All-Star break for the first time since 1995.Pineda (3-9) had his second straight poor performance, looking frustrated as he kicked at the mound after the long balls.
