Notes & reviews

Bell had play at second, but Utley was late covering, so Bell had to go to first, but was twisted so that he had nothing on the throw and Orr beat the play. Originally ruled FC, changed to hit on 7-05
pitch in the dirt, ball bounces a short distance in front of the plate. No one covered first, so Utley safe
