Notes & reviews

  • Phillies Manager Charlie Manuel ejected while still in the dugout by HP umpire Alan Porter; when Manuel came on the field to argue, crew chief Gary Cederstrom came in from 2B and stood in front of Manuel; when Manuel tried to move around. Cederstrom mirrored Manuel's movements, thus preventing Manuel from getting to Porter
