Notes & reviews

  • Pirates pitcher Jason Davis threw the ball wildy to first on the sacrifice attempt by Jamie Moyer; right fielder Jason Michaels backed up the play and threw wildly to second base; as Moyer rounded first, he ran into and knocked down first base umpire Randy Marsh
  • the 21st pinch hit of the season for Greg Dobbs to set a record for the Phillies
