Notes & reviews

  • the Orioles objected to the called second strike to Matt Wieters; the next pitch was inside and catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia threw to 2B to attempt to catch Vladimir Guerrero's steal attempt; there was no call made at 2B by umpire Mike Winters as the pitch seemed to be ball four; when Saltalamacchia asked HP umpire Mark Wegner to ask about the check swing by Wieters, 3B umpire Chris Guccione called it a swing (for strike three) and immediately after that Winters called out Guerrero on the steal for a double play; Orioles Manager Buck Showalter came out to argue the play and was ejected by Guccione
