Notes & reviews

Burke and Tavener went after it but it dropped safely
Neun started for 3B after the catch. Davis let Hooper's throw get through him and it rolled to the stand.
Past Collins
Bounced past Heilmann
Jones managed to smother it and scrambled to the bag in time
Nice 1-handed catch near the stand
