Notes & reviews

  • Brewers catcher Johnny Estrada left the game due to an injured knee
  • Francoeur rounded second base, made a headfirst dive back into the bag and was called safe; Brewers Manager Ned Yost ejected by 2B umpire Chris Guccione for arguing the call; Yost then gestured and appeared to vent anger at 1B umpire Jerry Layne, who made the call on Teixeira's infield hit; Yost focused his postgame comments on what he said was poor umpiring throughout the series
