Notes & reviews

Richie Weeks hit the ball down the first base line; it was rolling in foul territory near the grass but the spin carried the ball back into fair territory just before it reached the bag; Ryan Howard waited for the ball and once it crossed the line, he picked it up and stepped on the bag for the out; Weeks never ran, he was standing outside the batter's box when put out
