Notes & reviews
- Zimmerman was spiked on Fitzpatrick's hard slide.
- Braves Johnny Evers, not in game, ejected by 1b umpire Eason for arguing that Good was out at 2nd. Nine Boston bench warmers also loudly protested the safe call. Umpires ordered them off the bench and to the clubhouse, but they were not ejected.
- 3bman Smith ejected by 1B umpire Eason for continuing to argue the previous call at 2nd
- Attempted double-steal
