Notes & reviews

  • on the force at 2B, Matt Holliday tried to go through Cubs SS Starlin Castro; Holliday's hand was well off the ground but seemed to be over the bag as he went by; Castro fell and did not make a throw to 1B; Jon Jay scored on the play; when Castro got up slowly and did not look at the runners, Albert Pujols, who had run from 2B to 3B on the play, scored without a throw; Cubs Manager Mike Quade argued with 2B umpire Derryl Cousins, who ejected Quade and then was yelling at the manager until 1B umpire Jim Wolf moved Quade away
