Notes & reviews

  • Barry Larkin's fly ball ruled a home run by 2B umpire Bill Hohn when it appeared to sail over the fence and rebound back onto the field; John Kruk argued the call and the umpires huddled; the call was changed to a double; TV replays show the ball hitting the top of the wall and rebounding onto the field
