Notes & reviews

Nobody covered second, Oldring to third base.
Fournier hit a popup to shallow right field that fell in safely; Shano Collins held up halfway between 1st and 2nd since he wasn't sure if ball would be caught; Fournier didn't notice Shano and ran to second base passing him on his way; Shano got confused and hesitated before he himself headed for second and was tagged out sliding into 2nd base for a strange DP
Berger muffed outfield throw, Lapp credited with triple.
