Notes & reviews

Smash bounded off Grimes toward 1B line
Deflected off Grimes' glove; High's throw to 1B was low
Bottomley: Leaping catch of Lavan's throw
Late throw to 2B
Past 3B
Nice running catch
Grimes tried a quick-pitch but Sherdel singled
Beautiful play on slow bounder
Sherdel was picked off 1B but Johnston dropped the throw
