FORT MYERS, Fla. -- There's no official word as to the substance of the agreement that got the Red Sox back on the field today, but, before the game, both Mike Lowell and Jason Varitek -- speaking separately, nearly an hour apart -- were adamant that the Sox would not play unless the coaches were compensated by Major League Baseball at the same level as the players for the trip to Japan. The fact that they're playing the game would indicate they're satisfied with whatever settlement was reached.
