Notes & reviews

Perry lost the fly in the sun and it dropped safely
C throw bounced past 2B but Murphy backed up the throw and kept Dernier from advancing to 3rd
Cubs 3rd base coach Zimmer held Dernier at 3rd but Sandberg kept coming and was run down between 2nd and 3rd
Smith left the game after one pitch to Watson due to a strained muscle, left side
Hubbard dropped the ball--second time he had done so in this game but first error recorded
