Notes & reviews

  • when Jonathan Schoop was called safe at 2B, Royals manager Ned Yost challenged the ruling; the call was overturned by replay
  • Chris Davis slammed his bat to the ground, yelled at Franklin Morales and walked to 1B accompanied by manager Buck Showalter; HP umpire Mark Carlson warned both teams; Showalter argued that Morales should be ejected; Showalter ejected by Carlson
