Notes & reviews

Marlins 3B Wes Helms allowed the grounder to go past him into LF; he then moved toward the infield expecting to act as a cutoff man on a throw from LF; he got in the way of base runner Jerry Hairston, who was thrown out at the plate; however, Helms was called for obstruction and the run counted; thus Helms is charged with two errors on the play, one for misplaying the grounder and one for the obstruction
