Notes & reviews
- Brad Ausmus ejected by HP umpire Matt Hollowell; he jumped up after the safe call at the plate and vehemently argued; it was a quick toss and then Ausmus threw his helmet down and had to be restrained by coaches and teammates
- DeJean argued with Mgr Royster on the mound before leaving the game
