Notes & reviews

14 minute rain delay
Pitcher Barker ejected by 2B umpire Montague for arguing reversal of out at 3rd for apparent double play; Jorgensen hit line drive to left field that wsa caught on shoestring and the throw to 3rd appeared to be in time to retire Herr returning to bae; the out was called by both 3B umpire and HP umpire; however, 2B umpire Montague overruled them and said 3bman had foot off bag when taking throw; Barker pitched to two more batters and then charged Montague after he was removed
Gerald Perry caled for obstruction
2:00 rain delay
Game called because of rain
