Notes & reviews

Juan Uribe swung at the 1-2 slider and barely tipped it; Kurt Suzuki caught the pitch and HP umpire Brian Knight called Uribe out; Uribe protested that the ball hit the ground, so Knight checked with 1B umpire Greg Gibson, who agreed that the ball hit the ground and thus was not a strikeout; Athletics manager Bob Geren argued the call with Gibson, who ejected Geren
