Notes & reviews

Brewers left fielder Ryan Braun left the game due to an injured leg
Rockies 1B Todd Helton scooped the bunt with his glove and flipped it towards the plate; the ball sailed over catcher Chris Iannetta's head and caromed off the backstop
Rockies catcher Chris Iannetta turned to HP umpire Cory Blaser after the safe call on a close play; Iannetta slammed his mask on the ground and was ejected by Blaser; Rockies manager Jim Tracy ran out and pushed Iannetta away from Blaser; Tracy was very upset with the call and yelled and gestured; when he pointed at the plate twice, he was ejected by Blaser
