Notes & reviews

McCarty hurt his leg running to 3rd
Kauff dropped flyball allowing Griffith to score tying run (Cueto was thrown out trying to score while Giants argued with umpires that Kauff had held ball long enough
Fletcher ejected by HP umpire Rigler for arguing called third strike (he threw his bat in the air)
deep flyball LFer did not attempt to catch
