Notes & reviews
- Jason Johnson warned by HP umpire Dan Iassogna after pitch went behind Nick Johnson; he protested that he was not throwing at the batter
- 1B umpire Fieldin Culbreth ruled that Jason Johnson missed base; replay showed that he hit the bag with his foot
- Pedro Swann thought there were three outs, started off field, then lobbed ball in making no attempt to throw home
- Jason Johnson's throw a one-hopper that B.J. Surhoff juggled but clearly controlled in bare hand before Bernie Williams touched 1B; ruled safe by 1B umpire Fieldin Culbreth; Orioles Manager Mike Hargrove ejected by Culbreth
