Notes & reviews

replay,3,confm001,NYN,barrt901,WAS11,,N,M,WAS,A $when Zack Wheeler was called safe at 2B, Nationals manager Dusty Baker challenged the ruling; the call was upheld by replay
the throw went into CF; Jayson Werth and Asdrubal Cabrera collided while no play was being made on Werth; 2B Umpire Angel Hernandez signalled obstruction but the play was allowed to proceed; once Werth was tagged out, the umpires ruled that he was not obstructed and ran to 3B at his own risk; this is one of the two obstruction types listed in the rules
