Catcher Spencer hit on knee by foul ball in 2nd, left here
Judge left with pain in side, went to hospital where he had surgery to remove his appendix!
Connolly to 3rd on single; center fielder threw to 3rd, but 3bman threw wildly to 2nd trying to get Russell, allowing Connolly to score and Russell to reach 3rd
