Notes & reviews

Rain began to fall lightly; game held up while fans rushed across field to the shelter of the covered pavillion.
The rain stopped and the sun came out brightly
Another shower started but not enough to stop play
Kelly mussed it up
Rixey's 2nd (and last) career SB
Past Pinelli
High bounder
No one covered 1B
Critz was trapped between 3B/home but got back when Lindstrom lunged at him and missed during the rundown.
