Notes & reviews
- Ricky Bones ejected by HP umpire Kerwin Danley for asking about a pitch after backing up the plate on the wild pitch
- Fred McGriff rounded 1B too far and got in a rundown; Jose Guillen tried to score but catcher Mike Redmond blocked the plate and tagged Guillen; Guillen and Redmond exchanged words in the collision; Gerald Williams - who had scored on the play - stepped between the two and Guillen became animated; both dugouts emptied
