Notes & reviews

To the bleachers
Off Adams's glove
Dandy catch on low liner
Nice 1-handed catch
Stock dropped the ball but Ump Moran ruled Heathcote knocked it out of his hands and called him out for interference. Robins argued Adams should've been sent back to 2B. Stock was charged with error for allowing Adams to go to 3B.
When Hartnett threw to 1B to catch Loftus asleep, the runner overran 1B, but 1B umpire Moran ruled he was safe. Friberg kicked and was ejected by Moran.
Grimm hadn't started due to sore left foot
Wide/high throw
