Lugo and Francona ejected

SEATTLE - Julio Lugo seemed to be protesting a check swing call on Raul Ibanez when third base umpire Angel Hernandez must have heard too much about it. He ejected Lugo, who kept protesting, and after manager Terry Franona came out to defend his player, he, too, was tossed from the game in the fifth inning.

The Sox, who already lost Daisuke Matsuzaka to an injury, are down, 3-0, in the sixth.
