Notes & reviews

Rain starts
Cleveland begins its stalling tactics hoping game will be called due to rain before it becomes an official game
35 minute rain delay
Game becomes a bit of a farce as Yankees with big lead try to make outs while Indians try to keep them from doing so before game is called due to rain
Ruel swung at three wild pitches
Game called on account of darkness
