Notes & reviews

Daniel Bard's throw sailed down the RF line and the ball ended up in the ball bag in the Rays bullpen; even though Ben Zobrist was rounding 3B when time was called, he was only awarded two bases because the overthrow was the first play by an infielder, thus negating a sure run for the Rays on the play
