Notes & reviews
- Off Fletcher's glove
- O'Brien: lunging scoop of Parish's hurried low throw
- Off Fletcher's glove, perhaps distracted by the runner in front of him.
- High off the green monster
- Stewart began his stretch then stopped
- Sierra beat out slow grounder
- Into LF screen
- Ward: running catch; nearly collided with Fletcher
- Hit RF foul pole
