Notes & reviews

HP umpire Eric Cooper appeared to call a strike to Andre Ethier on the outside corner as Rafael Furcal was attempting to steal 2B; as 2B umpire Chuck Meriwether called Furcal out at 2B, Cooper called time, saying that the pitch was ball four; Braves manager Bobby Cox argued with Cooper and Cox kept making a strike call with his right arm imitating Cooper's motion; Cox was ejected by Cooper
