Notes & reviews

  • White threw to 3rd; good throw would have had him, but White aggravated his hamstring injury on the play and had to leave the game
  • Sosa waited to see if SS could catch it
  • Nice play by Durham...took ball behind bag, then made a nice backhand flip to start the DP
  • Very catchable ball; wind-blown, but misplayed by Ordonez
  • Ordonez got a very good jump and made a nice sliding catch
  • Very nice sliding catch by Machado
  • Very long homer, over everthing, onto Waveland Ave
  • Nice leaping catch by Durham
  • Sosa could have caught this ball, but the sun was low and right in his face, so he may have lost it
