Notes & reviews

Red Sox Everett ejected by HP umpire Kulpa for bumping umpire with bill of his helmet and then head-butting him during argument; Kulpa had drawn line to show edge of batter's box in continuation of dispute from previous day's game when Mets pitcher was ejected for claiming Everett was out of box when hit by pitch; Everett suspended for 10 games
