I was at the game, sitting in box seats down the right field line. In real time as it happened, it appeared that Varitek was tagged because he slowed down approaching the bag, indicating contact. However, Rick Reed was in position for a banger, not a tag on the outside of the bag, which is where the play happened. With PU taking the run scoring, he can't watch 1B.
