Notes & reviews

the third pitch to Shane Victorino hit his left arm; HP umpire Brian Knight ruled that Victorino did not make an effort to avoid the pitch; Phillies manager Charlie Manuel argued the ruling and the umpires huddled on the infield; the call stood
Humberto Quintero blocked the pitch and the ball landed in front of the plate; Ben Francisco stood off the bag at third; Quintero picked up the ball and looked at Francisco then threw to Chris Johnson; Francisco moved back to the bag but missed it and stepped on Johnson's foot before getting on the bag; Johnson tagged Francisco before the latter touched the bag
