Notes & reviews

Infield shift on for Ryan Howard, with 3B Jerry Hairston playing at about the normal 2B spot
3B Jerry Hairston fielded the ball as a 2B and threw out Ryan Howard; Jimmy Rollins, running from 1B rounded 2B and never stopped, since there was no one covering 3B; as he turned the corner, he ran into SS Ian Desmond; Desmond was called for obstruction and Rollins awarded 3B
