Notes & reviews

  • replay,8,pedrd001,BOS,welkt901,BOS07,,N,U,,H $Dustin Pedroia's fly ball to LF struck the wall just below the top; a fan reached out trying to catch the ball; Pedroia slipped rounding 1B and was out when he left the base line trying to avoid being tagged; crew chief Tim Welke requested a review, which upheld the call of ball in play and no fan interference
