Hmmm... that output is strange.  it's not just the "boost" that's missing, 
all of the details about the "queryWeight part of the score 
from the "name:starbucks" clause are missing (and only the "fieldWeight") 
is listed...

:   8.609147 = (MATCH) weight(name:starbucks^20.0 in 163) [DefaultSimilarity],
: result of:
:     8.609147 = fieldWeight in 163, product of:
:       1.0 = tf(freq=1.0), with freq of:
:         1.0 = termFreq=1
:       8.609147 = idf(docFreq=8644, maxDocs=17433139)
:       1.0 = fieldNorm(doc=163)

...i honestly have no idea what would cause that ... my best guess is that 
maybe with the boost thta high the queryWeight winds up being "1.0" and 
the score Explanation code leaves it out since it doesn't affect things?
