BASEBALL

Automatic runner Corey Rosier scored on a grounder by Tyler McDonough in the bottom of the 10th inning, and the Portland Sea Dogs improved to 8-3 with a 4-3 win Wednesday night over the Reading Fightin Phils at Hadlock Field.

Rosier advanced to third on a groundout by Nick Yorke, then raced home ahead of second baseman Oliver Dunn’s throw after McDonough’s ground ball.

Reading rallied from a 3-0 deficit and forced extra innings when former Sea Dogs player Wendall Rijo hit an RBI single in the ninth.

The Sea Dogs opened the scoring in the third inning on RBI singles by McDonough and Ceddanne Rafaela. They made it 3-0 in the fourth when Rosier grounded in a fielder’s choice with the bases loaded.

Sea Dogs starter Brian Van Belle allowed three hits and two runs – one earned – over five hits. He struck out two and walked three.

FOOTBALL

NFL: Tua Tagovailoa said he briefly considered walking away from football last season after he was diagnosed with two concussions, leading to questions about whether it was safe for the 25-year-old Miami Dolphins quarterback to continue playing.

But after talking to his family and doctors, Tagovailoa ruled out retirement, and he started training in martial arts this offseason to help reduce head injuries, working on ways to land more safely when he gets hit.

• Hall of Fame linebacker Dave Wilcox, who made the Pro Bowl seven times in his 11 seasons with the San Francisco 49ers, has died. He was 80.
