Notes & reviews

Williams sees second uncovered as Tigers seem to be inattentive so he goes for it; Tavener muffs throw from Gibson, Bennett scores
Manush catches line drive and runs to second before Sisler gets back
Wells throw goes past Neun, whose throw to 2nd is wild
Deduced Jacobson as PH for platoon advantage
McManus tries to score on short wild pitch; is hurt colliding with Wells
McManus hobbled from collision in 7th has to leave game
