FORT MYERS, Fla.  A plane carrying Jacoby Ellsbury and Dustin Pedroia was struck by lightning on its way to Fort Myers.

Here's what Ellsbury posted on Twitter:

That's good luck? Yikes. Pedroia probably wanted to get out and walk the rest of the way. He's not much for flying.

Meanwhile Jason Varitek was the latest Red Sox luminary to arrive in camp.
