Notes & reviews

Woodward picked up the ball near 2B and stepped at the bag; umpire Holbrook called Schneider safe saying Woodward did not touch the bag; replays were inconclusive but Woodward could have grazed the side of the bag; ATL Mgr Cox argued the call
Cox ejected by Holbrook as he continued to argue the call from the dugout; Cox came on the field and put on a show for a few minutes around 2B
