Notes & reviews

  • originally scored as PB to advance runners, changed next day
  • pitcher Brett Anderson flipped the ball to catcher Kurt Suzuki, who blocked the plate and tagged Mike Napoli before his foot touched the plate; HP umpire CB Bucknor called Napoli safe; Athletics manager Bob Geren talked with Bucknor
  • Bobby Wilson swung at a pitch while the runners attempted stolen bases; Wilson's swing carried him across the plate and he got in the way of Kurt Suzuki who was attempting to throw to second; Wilson was called out for batter interference and the runners returned to their original bases
