Youkilis
BOSTON - The Boston Red Sox may have found a solution to their surplus of corner infielders - for a while, anyway.
BOSTON - Mike Lowell, who entered the game after Kevin Youkilis was ejected for charging the mound and inciting a bench-clearing scuffle, hit two home runs to lead the Boston Red Sox to a 7-5 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night.
