Notes & reviews

  • Denard Span's popup was near the 2B bag; Alexi Casilla retreated to the bag and stood on it with his back turned to HP; SS Jhonny Peralta stood slightly in front of the bag and started drifting backwards to stay under the ball; Peralta bumped into Casilla and they both fell down; 2B umpire Brian O'Nora immediately ruled Casilla out for interference, saying that the runner must make an effort to get out of the way, even if he is standing on the bag
