Notes & reviews

Ump Pfirman called Critz out for touching 2B before returning to 1B but was overruled by Ump O'Day.
Hit & run; smart galloping by Critz
Fine catch
PDT: 'an utterly impossible catch'
Critz received tremendous applause as he came to bat
Hit & run; Bentley tried to score when Roush momentarily fumbled. He was out with plenty of room to spare.
Wonderful play by all three
