Notes & reviews

Chapman thrown out trying to score after Cronin was caught in rundown between 1st and 2nd
Goslin out after rounding 3rd base too far
Chapman was tagged out, then jumped up and started swinging, but before a blow was landed, HP umpire Basil stepped between them and other players pushed the combtants aside; there were no ejections
