Notes & reviews

Ball four to Kauff got away from catcher who threw in time to nail Rariden trying to score but pitcher dropped throw. Kauff ran for 2nd and throw was late. Scheer broke for home and 2Bman's throw was wild allowing Scheer to score. Kauff also came all the way around to score as well.
