Notes & reviews

Paul Waner was benched for 'lack of hitting', in hope a rest may benefit his batting eye.
Clarke: fine play
Farrell's wild throw to 2B was then booted by Ott
Bartell: 1-handed pickup
Fullis: diving, tumbling catch
Comorosky: spectacular leaping catch near scoreboard
Slow roller
Hemsley was spiked on the play at the plate and was treated but could not continue.
Perfect throw but nobody covered 2B
Off Bartell's glove
Past Petty
O'Farrell: fine catch near Giant dugout
Low throw
Slow roller
