Notes & reviews

on the double play, White Sox 2B Gordon Beckham seemed to be off the bag when he caught the throw; 2B umpire Paul Emmel ruled Marlon Byrd out; Cubs manager Mike Quade argued the play and was ejected by Emmel; as Quade left the field, he also yelled at HP umpire and crew chief Gary Darling from a distance
