BOSTON RED SOX VS TEXAS RANGERS
Boston Red Sox third baseman Mike Lowell and manager Terry Francona argue with third base umpire Paul Schrieber and home plate umpire Jim Joyce over a ball hit by Texas Rangers second baseman Ian Kinsler at Fenway Park in Boston on June 11, 2006. Francona argued that Schrieber had called the ball foul, but it was ruled as a double play, sending left fielder Brad Wilkerson home to tie the game at 2 in the fifth inning.
