Notes & reviews

Clinton's entry into the game isn't clearly marked, but he didn't bat for Pearson in the first and he was in the game in the top of the third when he recorded the only right field putout of the game. This seems like a logical place for the substitution; perhaps something happened to Pearson during his at-bat.
Four straight walks in the game for Allison!
