Mike Lowell lined the ball deep to left field, just missing a homer as it hit high off the Green Monster for a single.Still, it was a fitting finale to a 13-year career for the Boston Red Sox infielder.Lowell, honored before Saturday's day-night doubleheader with the New York Yankees , is retiring after the last game of the season Sunday. After he reached base all three times up in the opener Saturday with a double, walk and single, manager Terry Francona doesn't plan to play him again."I told (Francona) I would love to end my career on a base hit," Lowell said. "I thought it was really nice."After his leadoff single in the fifth, Lowell was replaced by pinch-runner Lars Anderson. Lowell went to the dugout, then came out and waved his helmet to the cheering crowd.The 2007 World Series MVP is batting .239 with five homers and 26 RBIs. For his career, he's hitting .279 with 223 homers and 952 RBIs.Lowell played sparingly this season as Adrian Beltre took over at third base. But when Kevi...
