Notes & reviews

  • during a rundown, Mets SS Jose Reyes was called for obstruction; Mets manager Jerry Manuel came out to argue with 1B umpire Bill Welke for the third time in the game; Manuel was ejected by Welke; Manuel bumped Welke's hat with the bill of his own while screaming in the umpire's face after the ejection; Manuel thought that runner Shane Victorino initiated the contact with Reyes
