Notes & reviews

Downpour delayed start 25 minutes.
Off the scoreboard.
Cramer thought the 3-1 pitch was ball four and trotted down to first base. Almada trotted to second. Umpire Ormsby called the pitch a strike. Almada was allowed to stay at second credited with a stolen base. The White Sox argued that Almada should return to first to no avail.
Bonura and Piet tagged up but Piet was thrown out at second.
Werber made a great running catch coming in for the low line drive.
Cain's throw to third was too late.
