Detroit playing Boston. Score now tied 3-3.
Francona just now got thrown out. Wonder if anyone will be left in the 9th? Maybe the bat boy and ball girl . . . . . . .OLD BRAWL GAME (7:55 p.m.)
Kevin Youkilis has just been ejected from the game for charging the mound after being hit by a pitch from Rick Porcello. Obviously, there has been quite a it brewing between these teams since last night, when three batters were hit, including Youkilis. Youkilis now has been hit 10 times this year, placing him among the league leaders.
Rick Porcello also was ejected, much to his displeasure and that of Tigers manager Jim Leyland. Porcello had hit one batter all season prior to the incident. Remember that he also brushed back Victor Martinez in the first.
Chris Lambert is on to pitch for the Tigers. Mike Lowell has entered the game for Youkilis.
