Notes & reviews

Braves manager Snitker ejected by 2B umpire Layne for complaining that Phillies were stalling to allow their reliever more time to warm up since he not started when he was called in; the Phillies stalled and Snitker was ejected when he complained about it; umpire ruled that new pitcher could only throw 5 pitches instead of usual 8
