BALTIMORE -- The Baltimore Orioles had gone nearly a week without a victory, a stretch that included three one-run defeats in Arizona and a lopsided loss to Colorado at home. So, when they finally got to add another digit to their win total, the Orioles didnt really care if the outcome was influenced by their opponents mistakes. Brian Roberts and Manny Machado both hit two-run doubles during a seven-run third inning fueled by Colorado miscues, and Baltimore defeated the Rockies 8-4 Saturday night to end a four-game skid. Adam Jones had two hits in Baltimores highest-scoring inning of the season, which featured an error by shortstop Troy Tulowitzki, two walks, a passed ball and a wild pitch. Six of the seven runs were unearned, but when it was done the Orioles had an 8-1 lead. "It was huge," winning pitcher Bud Norris said. "It was a tough stretch there in Arizona. But just to be back in the win column was huge. To have a seven-run third inning is definitely a help to any starting pitcher going out there. I just wanted to keep putting up zeroes and the bullpen really came in and picked me up, too." Norris (9-10) gave up four runs and nine hits over 5 2-3 innings to improve to 3-1 since coming to the Orioles in a trade with Houston on July 31. He was followed by a relief corps that allowed only three hits the rest of way. "This is the big leagues. The third inning with a seven-run lead is never comfortable," said Tommy Hunter, who worked the ninth. "Guys came in and threw the ball well in certain situations and got us to the end of the ballgame with a four-run lead." Most of the damage in the third inning came against Colorado rookie Chad Bettis (0-2), who allowed seven hits, four walks and eight runs in 2 2-3 innings. "It was really embarrassing," Bettis said. "I need to be better. I wasnt making the right pitches." Baltimores third inning began with a double by Chris Davis and an infield hit by Jones. Nick Markakis followed with an RBI single, and one out later Colorado brought the infield in with runners on second and third. Steve Pearce hit a grounder that got past Tulowitzki, allowing Jones to score. "I think Tul probably looked up to see if the runner was taking off from third," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "But, hes been as good as you can possibly be at shortstop. Hes not going to make every play for six months." Following the second out, Roberts doubled in two runs, Nate McLouth walked and Machado hit his major league-leading 43rd double. Adam Ottavino replaced Bettis and walked Davis before Jones delivered an RBI single for a seven-run cushion. "Ive never been a part of a bad seven-run inning, when youre the one scoring it," Roberts said. "Obviously, we needed a little something to kind of jump start us and that was big, to use the extra out they gave us to put some runs on the board. Everyone kind of breathed a little sigh of relief and said, All right. Now were ready to go." Dexter Fowler hit RBI singles in the fourth and sixth innings for the Rockies, who lost for only the second time in eight games. Colorado stranded 11 and went 2 for 12 with runners in scoring position. Jones had three hits and Davis picked up his 113th RBI to help the Orioles secure their first victory since beating San Francisco last Sunday. "I think people panic a little more outside the clubhouse than we do inside the clubhouse," Roberts said. "We all still feel like we are in pretty good shape." Colorado got two hits and two walks in the first inning but scored only once, when Tulowitzki bounced into a double play. In the bottom half, McLouth drew a leadoff walk, advanced on a single by Machado and came home on a fly ball by Davis. Although the Orioles left the bases loaded in the second, they made up for it in the third. NOTES: Orioles SS J.J. Hardy was late scratch with back spasms.

Povetkin promoter Andrey Ryabinsky of World of Boxing won promotional rights to the fight at a purse bid last month with an offer of $3.165 million to easily defeat the second-place bid of $2.1 million made by Don King, Stivernes promoter.On Monday, the WBC disclosed that Stiverne had failed a drug test as part of its mandatory Clean Boxing Program, which is administered by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association.The WBC said Stiverne provided the sample Nov. 4 and was informed of the failed test for the banned substance methylhexaneamine, a stimulant also known as dimethyamylamine or DMAA, on Nov. 11. DMAA has been on the World Anti-Doping Agency prohibited substances list since 2010 and has been linked to life-threatening side effects.Throughout the investigative process, Stiverne has been extremely cooperative and 100 percent forthcoming, the WBC said. Stiverne informed the WBC that on the day of the test, in order to facilitate urination, he took a dietary supplement called Superharm in front of the sample collector. He reported the ingestion of that supplement in the declaration of medication use section of the doping control form he filled in connection with the test.Stiverne also reported that he ingested the supplement twice the same day and that he took it because the supplement staff at EOS Gym in Henderson, Nevada, recommended it to him. He was looking for a product that would help him with post-workout fatigue. Stiverne is fully aware of the gravity of the mistake he made by taking an off-the-shelf supplement without investigating its ingredients in detail. Stiverne also realizes that he is ultimately responsible for anything that he ingests. In short, he now realizes that he was very na?ve by following a stores recommendation of an off-the-shelf supplement while being ignorant of its contents.The WBC said in its report that it will still sanction the bout for the interim title because Stiverne has never had a positive test in the past and there is no evidence that Stiverne intentionally or even knowingly ingested a banned substtance with the purpose of enhancing his performance in any fashion.ddddddddddddStivernes ingestion of DMAA was purely accidental.In its ruling, the WBC said it would fine Stiverne $75,000 but it will not withdraw its sanction of the bout at this point in light of the fact that there is sufficient time to put in place preventative and remedial measures to protect the health and safety of the bouts participants.VADA will design a specific testing protocol for Stiverne at his expense, and it will begin as soon as possible and continue for six months after the fight.If Stiverne has another failed test, the WBC said he would be suspended from participating in WBC-sanctioned fights indefinitely and would be stripped of the title if he beats Povetkin, a former titleholder. The WBC said it will also ask Stiverne to perform 40 hours of community service to help educate young athletes about the dangers of doping.He ingested an energy drink, King told ESPN. Ive had him for 15 years and never hes never had any kind of drug dispute or banned substance issues. The day he was tested, he drank it. You got to be able to deal with it. It could have been great jeopardy for him. VADA does a terrific job. I have nothing but the highest respect for [VADA president] Dr. Margaret Goodman.Im very happy he still has the opportunity for this fight. He knows not to take it. I told him dont take nothin from nobody. Everything is good.Povetkin has his own history of drug issues. He was supposed to fight Wilder (37-0, 36 KOs), who won the belt by lopsided decision from Stiverne in January 2015, in a mandatory bout May 21 in Moscow. The fight was canceled nine days beforehand, when Povetkin failed a VADA test for the banned substance meldonium, which he claimed he ingested before the drug was added to the WADA banned list in January.The WBC ultimately elected to not punish Povetkin because the amount of the substance in his system was far below the threshold accepted by WADA in an updated notice on the drug published in June. There remain questions, however, about how Povetkin could have tested negative in random VADA doping tests conducted April 7, 8 and 11 while his April 27 sample -- the A and the B -- was positive for meldonium.Based on Ryabinskys winning purse bid, Povetkin (30-1, 22 KOs), 37, and Stiverne (25-2-1, 21 KOs), 38, are each entitled to $1,424,250 apiece, with the remaining 10 percent of the winning bid, $316,500, going to the winner of the fight as a bonus.
