Notes & reviews

replay,8,pie-f001,BAL,kellj901,KAN06,O,N,I,,H $Felix Pie's fly ball hit the padded railing at the top of the RF wall above the out-of-town scoreboard and was ruled in play; Orioles manager Buck Showalter asked about the ground rules for that fence; crew chief Jeff Kellogg watched the replay and upheld the call
