Notes & reviews

Dan Johnson was called safe by 1B umpire Doug Eddings, who ruled that pitcher Gavin Floyd juggled the ball making the play; White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen talked to Eddings and the umpires huddled to discuss the call; the call was changed to an out because Floyd juggled the ball after crossing the bag while taking the ball out of his glove; Rays manager Joe Maddon stormed onto the field to argue the changed call and was ejected by crew chief Dana DeMuth; Maddon then signaled that he was ejecting DeMuth and proceeded to eject all four umpires before leaving the field
