BEREA, Ohio -- Cleveland Browns running back Isaiah Crowell said Wednesday he will donate about $35,000 to a fallen officers fund in Dallas as part of his apology for posting a drawing on Instagram last week showing a police officer getting his throat slashed.Crowell, in a video posted on Facebook, apologized again for the post and said he would donate his first game check to a fund for the police officers slain and injured during a sniper attack last week. He didnt say what the exact amount would be, but his yearly salary is $600,000 covering 17 weeks of the NFL season, including a bye.I know this might not change your mind about me, and I know I cant take the post back, but Im sorry and moving forward Im committed to being part of the solution, the 23-year-old Crowell said in the video.Crowell posted the drawing after black men in Louisiana and Minnesota were fatally shot by police. He subsequently deleted the post, but a screenshot continued to be circulated on social media.Crowell said he was frustrated and upset and let his emotions get the better of him. He said he knew the post was wrong almost immediately and deleted it with no prompting.I would never wish violence on anyone, especially a police officer, he said.Still, the post upset Cleveland police officers who are preparing for the Republican National Convention starting next week in the city. Steve Loomis, the president of the Cleveland police union, had threatened to pull police staffing of Browns games because of it, but he said Wednesday he was satisfied with Crowells apology and donation.Five police officers were killed in the Dallas attack last Thursday night at a protest over the shooting deaths of the two black men by white officers. Seven other officers and two civilians were wounded.The Browns were clear about their displeasure with Crowells post, calling it an extremely disturbing and unacceptable social media decision in a statement released earlier this week. The team called on Crowell to take steps to make a positive difference after a very negative and impactful post.Crowell had 706 yards rushing and four touchdowns for Cleveland last year. The former Alabama State star has totaled 1,313 yards rushing and 12 TDs in two seasons with the Browns.

BOSTON -- July just keeps getting better in Boston.The Red Sox continued their midsummer surge with another offensive barrage, getting 17 hits and routing the Minnesota Twins 13-2 on Thursday night.After closing out June by losing four of five, the Red Sox are 12-3 in July and standing alone atop the AL East.The month of July has been a very good offensive month as weve kind of gotten past that stretch in June, manager John Farrell said. Just great to see that number of quality at-bats.Mookie Betts homered on the first pitch Boston faced and the Red Sox added home runs by Jackie Bradley Jr. and David Ortiz. Boston has won three straight and nine of 10.The Red Sox managed to outdo their 16-hit total from an 11-7 win against San Francisco on Wednesday night and finished with at least 15 hits for the 15th time this season.Betts, Ortiz and Xander Bogaerts had three hits apiece and Dustin Pedroia went 5 for 5 with two doubles as Boston climbed to a season-best 15 games above .500 (54-39).Steven Wright (12-5) tied his career high with nine strikeouts and held Minnesota to four hits in eight innings. He had just set down the Twins in order in the top of the first when Betts gave Boston a 1-0 lead by driving the first pitch he saw from Tyler Duffey out to left-center for his 19th homer.Wrighty had a quick inning and I figured we might as well ride that momentum going into our first at-bat, Betts said. We were ready to play. Today it was our turn, but tomorrow it could be the opposite.Maybe, but not lately in Boston. The Red Sox have won seven straight at home.The Twins didnt reach base against Bostons knuckleballer until the fifth inning and finished with five hits.My goal is just to go as deep as I can until they tell me Im done. Today I was lucky enough to go eight, Wright said. It makes it easy when the guys score 11 runs or 12 runs, but today was an all-around good day.Wright allowed four hits and Minnesota added a ground-rule double by pinch-hitter Eduardo Escobar in the ninth off reliever Clay Buchholz. The former starter came on to finish the game after Ortiz had capped off Bostons outburst with a two-run homer in the bottom of the eighth.It got ugly, Twins manager Paul Molitor said. Weve havent had a game like that in a while.Boston was up 3-0 after getting four hits against Duffey (5-7) in the first. Betts started it with the homer and Pedroia, Bogaerts and Ortiz followed with connsecutive singles.ddddddddddddTheyre a pretty aggressive team. Theyre confident, Duffey said. When theyre in a groove like that, if you dont make them uncomfortable they can lean on some stuff.Betts hit the first pitch Duffey threw out to left, then led off the third with a single as Boston added three runs and led 6-0. Duffey allowed six runs before being pulled with one out in the third after Bradley double
