Notes & reviews

Reds Manager Dave Miley ejected by HP umpire CB Bucknor for arguing a strike call on Casey
umpchange,6,ump3b,reilm901
umpchange,6,ump2b,(None)
3B umpire Chuck Meriwether left game with food poisoning
Cubs Manager Dusty Baker intended to flip these two players in the batting order but failed to tell the umpires
Ramon Martinez led off the inning with a double and then the Reds protested that the Cubs were batting out of order; Kent Mercker, the proper batter, was called out; Dusty Baker argued with the umpires but was told that the call stood; yelling and screaming, he tossed his lineup card on the ground and was ejected by HP umpire CB Bucknor; Baker threw his hat away, walked away and returned; he tossed his hat again, stomped to the dugout and kicked some items in the on deck cirle before finally leaving the field
