Notes & reviews

Braves manager Bobby Cox ejected by 1B umpire Davidson for arguing check swing strike 3 to Presley; catcher made wild throw to 1st on pickoff attempt allowing runner to score from 2nd as batter stayed at plate; Expos appealed check swing which was ruled a strike to end inning, removing the run which caused Cox to argue and be ejected
