Notes & reviews

  • Oliva's advance on the SF is not explicitly stated, but he scores on the next batter's single so I made the assumption that he had moved to second base on the flyout.
  • I'm not sure if this is a DP or GDP: Valdespino started on first base and advanced on the 5-3 groundout. He was then caught trying for third base. So, the DP is 5-3-5 . . .
