Notes & reviews

Pirates pitcher Erik Bedard left the game due to an injured back
replay,4,desmi001,WAS,davig901,PIT08,I,N,I,,H $Ian Desmond's fly was just over the short wall in LF; Yamaico Navarro reached over the top and caught the ball, thus bringing a homer back; a fan reached and pulled at Navarro and his glove; the play was ruled an out but 2B umpire Greg Gibson went in to talk with crew chief Gerry Davis; Davis watched the replay and upheld the ruling, confirming no fan interference
