SEATTLE -- Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano put a charge into Safeco Field in the eighth inning, and then reliever Edwin Diaz got to shut it all down for the first time.Cano hit a three-run homer to cap a five-run eighth, new closer Diaz got his first major league save and the Mariners overcame a four-run deficit to beat the Boston Red Sox 5-4 on Tuesday night.Cano capped the comeback with his 24th homer, off newly acquired Red Sox reliever Fernando Abad (1-5). It spoiled what had been a dominant performance by Boston left-hander David Price.Thats baseball. You cant explain it, you really cant, Mariners manager Scott Servais said. Thats what makes baseball great.The fans ride the roller coaster with us. At times, we are tough to watch. I get it, he added. But you have to keep watching because our guys dont quit and they believe something good is going to happen and tonight it did.The Mariners had three hits off Price through seven innings and trailed 4-0. Then Mike Zunino opened the eighth with a home run to left off Price, and Leonys Martin, Sardinas and Guillermo Heredia followed with consecutive singles to chase the lefty.Matt Barnes struck out pinch-hitter Seth Smith. Abad came in and tried to get a curveball past Cano, who hit it 394 feet for a one-run lead.I was just looking for something over the plate, said Cano, who was 1 for 11 in his career against Abad. Hes one of the toughest lefty relievers in the game right now. The guy has got me out a lot of times. I just try to put it in play.Red Sox manager John Farrell said Abad, had such good success against Cano. Hes working the at-bat in good shape. He got him to chase a couple breaking balls, missed one over the middle of the plate and that was the difference in this one.Diaz replaced struggling Steve Cishek as closer after Cishek blew a three-run lead in a loss Sunday night to the Cubs and allowed a go-ahead homer in the ninth during a 2-1 defeat to Boston on Monday night.

He struck out three in a scoreless ninth Tuesday.Diaz gave up a one-out walk to Travis Shaw, but Cano came up with the assist.When Cano came to (visit) me, I started to relax, Diaz said.

I can use the extra days off. Once I found out I wasnt fighting, I just kept moving to Saturday.Stevenson will secure either gold or silver for the U.S., something the country hasnt accomplished since Andre Ward won gold in Athens in 2004.Ramirez, the London Olympics gold medalist at flyweight, advanced with a masterful victory over Uzbekistans Murodjin Akhmadaliev while Stevenson watched from the stands.I paid close attention to it, Stevenson said. He had a tough opponent from Uzbekistan, and he got it done. He made it look easy, and were about to get after it, I swear.Stevenson is an elite 19-year-old prospect from Newark, New Jersey, with sophisticated boxing skills and remarkable athleticism. He hasnt lost an international bout in his amateur career, and he received a preliminary-round bye as a seeded fighter in Rio before beating Brazils Robenilson de Jesus and Mongolias Erdenebat Tsendbataar, both by unanimous decision.The U.S. men won just one bronze medal in Beijing and none at all in London.

Even Stevensons personal coach, Kay Koroma, was excited about the potential test.Ive had many conversations with him where he said that he made his own list when he got here, said Koroma, who is also a coach for USA Boxing. `I saw my bracket. I get to see Conlan in the semifinals and Robeisy in the finals. He didnt get to see Conlan, and he didnt get to see the Russian, but the end of it is happening, and now hes got to fulfill it. What a way to win a gold medal, fighting the person you want to fight.Stevenson has been widely expected to begin his pro career with Top Rank Promotions this fall, but Floyd Mayweather tweeted Wednesday that he wished to extend a warm welcome to (at)ShakurStevenson into The Money Team family. Mayweather runs an eponymous promotional company, but has no stars under contract with the potential drawing power of Stevenson.Stevenson declined to confirm he had teamed up with Mayweather to be his promoter or in another capacity, grinningly saying he hasnt even decided whether he will go pro.Nothing is decided yet, Stevenson said. Im going to focus on winning the gold medal, and after I win the gold medal, Im going to weigh my options and see whats next for me.But Stevenson spoke glowingly of the retired champion after meeting him earlier in the Rio tournament. Mayweather, who attended Stevensons fights, subsequently referred to Stevenson as the next Floyd Mayweather.If he calls me and tells me stuff, Ill take it, but Im focused, Stevenson said. Im ready. It dont matter who I talk to. ' ' '
