Notes & reviews

Through Boggs to Rice
Into 2nd row of lower RF stands
Mattingly reached into the stands
Randolph distracted by the sun and the charging Winfield
Hit on the right arm
Popped out of Sullivan's mitt; no throw
Over LF fence on first hop
Over Rice's glove at the warning track just to the left of the 411' sign. Armas backed up the play.
Over the 410' sign in CF
Tolleson lost it in the sun
Just over LF fence
Henderson fumbled
Pagliarulo: running catch
Check swing
Barrett: whirling play
Rice collided with Owen but hung on. While Rice was lying on the ground in foul territory with Owen, a fan reached over and grabbed his cap. Owen was badly shaken and the trainer came out to attend to him for several minutes before escorting him to the dugout. Before play resumed, Rice vaulted the railing and went 10 rows up into the stands to confront the fan with his cap. After another several minutes' delay Rice eventually got his cap back with the aid of security guards.
