« Beckett lasts five | Main | Buchholz pitches five no-hit innings »

June 30, 2007

Oops!

By Nick Cafardo, Globe Staff

We'll have to get the full explanation after the game, but Julio Lugo was thrown out at third base trying to steal in the bottom of the eighth after he had pinch-run for Dustin Pedroia.

Judging by the reactions of Terry Francona and the Sox bench, didn't appear that they wanted him to run with Kevin Youkilis at the plate, two outs and tying run at second.

Anyway, it was the first time Lugo had been caught stealing this season in 21 attempts.
