Notes & reviews

  • Debut game for Luke Hughes
  • Homer for Luke Hughes on first ML at bat
  • CF Denard Span ran from right center into left center and appeared to make a great catch; as he slowed and started to reach into the glove, the ball popped out and fell to the ground; the play was ruled no catch by 3B umpire Paul Emmel; Twins manager Ron Gardenhire ran out and argued about the call; the umpires huddled and left the ruling as is; Gardenhire yelled at HP umpire and crew chief Gary Darling, who ejected Gardenhire
