Notes & reviews

Brandon Inge took the ball off his chest, picked it up and hurried his throw to HP; the ball sailed wide up the 1B line for the first error; he moved into foul territory after the throw and Rolen ran into him after rounding 3B; Inge was called for obstruction for the second error and Rolen allowed to score
