Notes & reviews
- Justin Upton's throw to the plate bounced by catcher Miguel Montero; pitcher Aaron Heilman caught the ball and threw to 2B; the ball bounced and was not handled by SS Stephen Drew; when Michael Cuddyer tried to score, Drew's throw back to the plate was late as Cuddyer touched the plate just ahead of Montero's tag
