Notes & reviews

Box score showed Schuble batting 7th and Phillips 8th, but the narrative had the reverse, and Schuble usually batted 8th, so I chose the text version.
Past Gehringer
Infield hit
Off scoreboard
Assuming fielders during run down
Reynolds went to 3B on Johnson's fumble, then scored on the latter's wild throw to the plate.
