INDIANAPOLIS -- All Hakeem Nicks really wanted in free agency was a chance to resuscitate a once-promising career. He was willing to play on a one-year deal, he was willing to work out a fair price and his only significant requirement was finding another star quarterback who could get him the ball. On Friday, the former Giants receiver found his new team: Indianapolis. "Hakeem is a big, tough, and highly competitive wide receiver who knows what it takes to win," Colts general manager Ryan Grigson said in a statement issued by the team. "His big-play potential requires attention from the defence every time hes out on the field. He adds another highly talented playmaker to our offence." Terms of the deal were not immediately available, though it is believed to be for one year. Nicks was the Giants first-round pick in 2009, and became an immediate contributor. He had back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons in 2010 and 2011 and was part of the Giants Super Bowl-winning team following the 2011 season. But injuries sidetracked his career the past two seasons. In 2012, Nicks was limited to just 53 catches, 692 yards and three touchdown catches in 13 games. The numbers were marginally better last season when played in 15 games. He finished with 56 catches and 896 yards but failed to score a touchdown. The Colts believe if Nicks is healthy, he can help them. The 26-year-old Nicks joins a receiving corps led by perennial Pro Bowl player Reggie Wayne, who is rehabilitating from a torn ACL, and emerging young star T.Y. Hilton. And, of course, Nicks will be catching passes from one of the NFLs best young quarterbacks in Andrew Luck. Indy was in the market for another receiver after last years free-agent flier on Darrius Heyward-Bey didnt work. And with Wayne trying to come back from his own injury, the Colts wanted another veteran to help mould a large group of young receivers. Since joining the Colts in January 2012, Grigson has been unafraid to take some calculated gambles. He traded a second-round pick to Miami for up-and-down cornerback Vontae Davis, a move that has panned out. Last year, he traded a first-round pick to Cleveland for running back Trent Richardson, a move that drew widespread scrutiny when Richardson didnt live up to the expectations of a top-five draft pick. He took a chance last year on receiver Darrius Heyward-Bye, a move that didnt work out, and he now has another injury prone former Giant to go along with running back Ahmad Bradshaw, who signed with Indy in June and re-signed this week.

Napoli hit two home runs, Jonny Gomes and prized rookie Xander Bogaerts also connected, and the Red Sox kept up their dizzying scoring spree at Yankee Stadium by bashing New York 13-9 Saturday for a fifth straight win. "Sometimes youre like, Whats going on? Because what were doing now is pretty crazy," Napoli said. The AL East leaders became the first visiting team in more than a century to score at least nine runs on three straight days against the Yankees. In fact, the last time it happened, they werent called the Yankees -- Boston did it in 1912 to the Highlanders at Hilltop Park. Add in a 20-4 pasting of Detroit on Wednesday, and the highest-scoring team in the majors has amassed this four-game total: 54 runs, 17 homers and 64 hits. "Were doing it in bulk right now," Gomes said. Down 12-3, the Yankees rallied with four runs in the sixth inning and chased John Lackey (9-12). Mark Reynolds added a two-run double in the eighth off Red Sox reliever Drake Britton that made it 12-9. "Considering the number of runs scored by both teams, no lead seems to feel safe," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. David Ortiz and Dustin Pedroia each contributed to Bostons five doubles. By the end of the fourth inning, it was 10-2 and every Red Sox batter had gotten a hit. They had all scored, too, except for Pedroia. Each line drive that echoed around the ballpark was met by noticeable groans from New York fans. A couple of "Lets go, Red Sox!" chants broke out among the many Boston fans. Even Bostons loud outs hurt. Right fielder Ichiro Suzuki slammed into the padded wall catching a drive by Ortiz and stayed down for a moment. Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter was pulled for a pinch-runner after an RBI single in the sixth and went to a hospital for a precautionary CT scan on his left ankle. The team said the preliminary results were negative. Jeter has missed most of the season while recovering from a broken left ankle in the playoffs last year. The 39-year-old team captain is hitting .190 in 17 games for the wild-card contenders. "Im nnot sure whats going to happen right now," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.dddddddddddd Fresh off routing the Tigers, the Red Sox arrived in the Bronx and beat the Yankees 9-8 in 10 innings Thursday and rallied for a 12-8 win Friday. A day after launching a grand slam, Napoli hit a two-run homer in the second and a solo drive in the ninth. Gomes added a three-run shot. Bogaerts doubled early, then hit a two-run shot in the fifth for his first major league homer. In the bottom half, the 20-year-old shortstop charged in for a nifty barehanded pickup to throw out Robinson Cano. Bogaerts homer sailed over the Boston bullpen into the left-centre field bleachers. He didnt get to watch it, though, because he felt a cramp in his leg as he connected. "I knew I hit it good," he said. The Yankees scored at least six runs for the sixth game in a row. That wasnt enough for David Huff (2-1), tagged for nine runs and eight hits in 3 1-3 innings. Huff made his first start of the season, moving from the bullpen to the rotation in place of ineffective Phil Hughes. "They capitalized on all my mistakes today. On my part, it was terrible," Huff said. Boston improved to 10-5 against New York this year and won all three series at Yankee Stadium. The Red Sox won minus centre fielder Jacoby Ellsbury. His injured right foot was put in a protective boot, and there is no timetable for his return to the lineup. NOTES: Even with 54 runs, the Red Sox didnt come close to their record for a four-game span. Boston scored 65 in four straight in June 1950, STATS said. ... Napoli had his 13th career multihomer game. ... Boston LHP Jon Lester (13-8, 3.88) starts Sunday afternoon vs. RHP Hiroki Kuroda (11-10, 2.99). ... Farrell said RHP Clay Buchholz was travelling to New York to rejoin the team. The Red Sox hope Buchholz, on the 60-day DL with a neck strain, can start Tuesday night at Tampa Bay. ... Yankees 3B Alex Rodriguez got a day off for rest. ... Gomes had an adventure in LF. He struggled as Brett Gardners two-run double flew over his head in the sixth, made a tumbling, awkward catch on Lyle Overbays fly to the warning track and fought the sun for another grab.
