Notes & reviews

  • Drive off right field wall resulted in a bizarre double-play; runner from 2nd Jeff Kent waited to see if the ball would be caught and was out at HP after RF Shawn Green played carom off wall perfectly and relay throw to home was excellent; runner from 1st J.D. Drew started running immediately and never stopped; Paul Lo Duca tagged Kent and then stood to show the ball to HP umpire John Hirschbeck; Lo Duca then turned towards the field to see Drew running at him, so he tagged the second runner as well
  • off the top of the camera position in CF; 450 feet
