Crazy shit going down in the BOS/TB game.
Red Sox manager John Farrell was tossed.
His replacement, Tory Lovullo was tossed.
HIS replacement, Brian Butterfield, was tossed.
Greg Colbrunn is now the acting manager.
All this because Price hit two batters (and didn't get tossed) while the Workman threw behind a guy (and got tossed).

Even crazier shit. Gomes gets plunked by a changeup to start the 10th for Boston. Pierzinski gets a changeup in the zone and drives it toward the triangle in right center. It splits the fielders, although Meyers got a glove on it. The outfielders collide, the ball rolls to the wall, and Gomes scores from first to end it. In the words of the old philosopher, "Beisbol she is a funny game".

About time to find out if the government thinks Henrik Lundqvist has grown out of control.
