Notes & reviews

the ball kicked off Rafael Furcal's glove and then he kicked it into short LF; his throw then sailed wide past HP for two errors on the same play
Rafael Furcal is the second player to make three errors in one post-season inning, the other being center fielder Willie Davis of the 1966 Dodgers
