Notes & reviews

  • Leach fumbled
  • PDL: Grimes caught it with his bare hand
  • Wicked drive hit Grimes' left leg and knocked him down. The ball bounced back to Taylor whose throw to 1B was late. Time was called; after about 5 minutes Grimes resumed.
  • Grimes hopped painfully in the air to grab high bounder
  • Sand fumbled momentarily from deep SS, costing DP chance
