Notes & reviews

originally scored as E8, changed to triple on 8-22-2012
Manny Machado's throw was wide to the outfield side of the bag; 1B Mark Reynolds tried to stretch and catch the ball; he was ruled on the bag by 1B umpire Jeff Kellogg; Tigers manager Jim Leyland ran out and talked with Kellogg, who huddled with HP umpire Tim Timmons; when Kellogg reversed the call to safe, Reynolds threw his glove down in protest and was ejected by 2B umpire Vic Carapazza; Orioles manager Buck Showalter ran out and argued with the umpires with his face turning bright red; he was ejected by 3B umpire Marty Foster
