Notes & reviews

Cardinals pitcher Jason Motte fielded the ball and turned to 2B before throwing to 3B David Freese; Freese threw to catcher Yadier Molina, who chased Andy LaRoche back to 3B; Andrew McCutchen ran from 1B to 3B on the play; Molina put his throwing hand on LaRoche's back while he tagged McCutchen, who was called out; LaRoche stepped off the bag to go to the dugout and Molina tagged him about three times while 3B umpire Ed Hickox emphatically called out LaRoche
