Notes & reviews

Lineup card was incorrectly filled out. Fletcher, who usually batted before Robertson, batted out of turn first three times up
Bounce HR
Fletcher batted out of turn again and doubled, but when it was discovered he batted out of turn, Fletcher was declared out
Robertson should have been called out for the BOOT but the umpire mistakenly called Fletcher out and had Robertson bat (still out of turn)
