Lee walks out as Red Sox trade sparks fallout
Veteran southpaw Bill Lee cleans out his locker amid anger over Bernie Carbo’s sale to the Indians near the trading deadline. The 31-year-old left hander, who has a 7-3 record and a 2.82 ERA, left Boston after a department store appearance and a public exchange about the trade. His absence comes as Boston scratches him from a start against Seattle while he reportedly seeks a break from the turmoil surrounding the team.
