Notes & reviews

originally scored a single, changed to error on 07-30-2014, making one additional unearned run
Matt Carpenter decided to allow the popped-up bunt to fall and attempt a double play; however, no one was covering 2B when he threw the ball in that direction; John Jay recovered the ball and beat Jordy Mercer to the bag
