Notes & reviews

into the CF TV camera box
infield shifted to right for David Ortiz
Kevin Youkilis hit the ball off the LF wall and ran half way to 2B; Kenny Lofton threw the ball to 2B; Asdrubal Cabrera started to chase Youkilis back to 1B while watching Dustin Pedroia at 3B; Cabrera's toss to Ryan Garko hit Youkilis' helmet and rolled into foul territory, allowing Pedroia to score
Ryan Garko stepped on the bag and threw to 2B with Kevin Youkilis trapped between the bases; Garko's throw bounced and went into CF
