Notes & reviews

Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips was called out by HP umpire Andy Fletcher on a checked swing; Phillips said something to Fletcher and was ejected immediately; he argued and kept pointing at Fletcher; Reds manager Dusty baker came out and argued a little but then Phillips started yelling; Baker restrained Phillips and pushed him off the field
