Notes & reviews

  • After grounding out, Pillar jogged back to dugout and as he passed home plate, he said quietly to plate umpire Fairchild that the called strike on the first pitch 'was terrible'; Fairchild ejected him
  • Blue Jays challenged call that Longoria's drive to the top of the wall had remained in play; call was upheld - in play and batter advances to third
