With a standing ovation and a tip of the cap, fan favorite Kevin Youkilis exited the field Sunday for the last time as a member of the Boston Red Sox.
According to numerous reports, the third baseman has been dealt to the Chicago White Sox. In return for the career .286 hitter, Boston will add righty Zach Stewart and utility player Brent Lillibridge.
And while trading Youkilis had been talked about for a while, all signs seemed to be pointing toward the 33-year-old ending up in Chicago courtesy of his brother Scott hitting the Twitters Sunday afternoon and lashing out at BeanTown.
Yipes.
