Notes & reviews

  • on the sixth pitch to Justin Morneau, HP umpire Bob Davidson called a foul tip and strikeout; Twins manager Ron Gardenhire asked Davidson about the pitch, since it appeared to hit the ground; Davidson looked at the ball and talked with 1B umpire Wally Bell then ruled a foul ball and brought Morneau back to the plate; Indians Manager Eric Wedge argued and was ejected by Davidson
