Notes & reviews

No fielding credit awarded for /BOOT $Gehringer batted in O'Rourke's spot in the order his first three times up. Athletics waited until Gehringer apparently singled to drive in Heilmann in the 4th inning before calling it to the umpire's attention. O'Rourke was declared out and, of course, Heilmann's run did not count
