Youkilis won't start

SAN DIEGO — J. D. Drew and Mike Lowell return to the starting lineup tonight, but Kevin Youkilis will not start against San Diego’s 6-10 righty, Chris Young. Young is a Princeton man and Sox CEO Larry Lucchino, also a Princeton man, said he once delivered a seminar to a group of students, including Young.

Lucchino and Sox owner John Henry were hanging around the Sox dugout during batting practice (David Ortiz used an metal bat during BP for the second straight night).

Lucchino is proudly showing off Petco Park. Henry said he toured the new (under construction) Yankee Stadium and indicated that it is going to be a massive ballpark.

Curt Schilling was back in the clubhouse, filled out his All-Star ballot and blew off the media who wanted to ask him about his shoulder. Curt said he had a ‘‘million things to do.’’ A lot of guys on the disabled list probably say the same thing.

Mike Cameron, batting cleanup for the Padres tonight comes into the game with six consecutive strikeouts against Tim Wakefield.

The Sox watched a lot of the Yankees-Giants game on the clubhouse big screen late in the afternoon.
