Kevin Youkilis charged the mound on Tuesday night after he was hit in the back with a pitch by Detroit's Rick Porcello. The brawl came in the bottom of the second inning. Both Youkilis and Porcello were ejected following the incident. After getting hit with an 89-mph pitch, Youkilis threw off his helmet and tackled Porcello to the ground. Both benches emptied. Detroit's Miguel Cabrera was hit on the left hand by a pitch in the first inning by Red Sox right-hander Junichi Tazawa. Boston manager Terry Francona was ejected later in the bottom of the second for arguing balls and strikes. |
