Pablo Sandoval had his latest sparkly World Series ring visible in his locker at the Oakland Coliseum. He is as proud of it as the first two he won with the San Francisco Giants, in 2010 and '12. ''It's hard to get one.'' The Red Sox slugger received the bling Sunday night from former manager Bruce Bochy, CEO Larry Baer and general manager Bobby Evans at Boston's team hotel, and said they spent about 30 minutes together. Sandoval believes his comments during spring training expressing frustration at the team's handling of negotiations last year and those that he only missed Bochy and Hunter Pence ''came out the wrong side.'' ''Because if I'm going to tell every name that I miss, it's going to be a long interview,'' he said, sitting in Boston's dugout holding a makeshift press conference.
