Notes & reviews

Chris Sale's first pitch was behind Manny Machado; both teams were warned by HP Umpire D.J. Reyburn
Jackie Bradley hit a popup in short LF; SS J.J. Hardy moved under the ball but no infield fly was called; the ball fell in behind Hardy and the base runners were stuck; Jonathan Schoop tagged Mitch Moreland, stepped on the bag to force Dustin Pedroia and threw to 1B for the force on Bradley
