Notes & reviews

Angels shortstop Erick Aybar left the game due to an injured leg
when the Astros removed pitcher Wesley Wright without him facing a batter or being injured, the Angels protested the game; when the Angels won, the protest was rescinded; first-year Astros manager Bo Porter claimed that the rule allowed him to replace his pitcher when the pinch hitter was announced; rule 3.05(b) clearly states the opposite
Angels pitcher Scott Downs left the game due to an injured foot
