Notes & reviews

Ladies' Day
Lineup turned in by Red Sox incorrectly had Newsome as the starting pitcher; he had to pitch to one batter
Off Dobson's leg
SBs during Dobson's windup
Cramer dropped it after a short run
Dobson pulled a muscle in his side when throwing a called strike to Case and had to leave
DiMaggio fumbled
