Notes & reviews

the Reds had been upset about HP umpire Bill Hohn's strike zone in the top of the inning during Mark Grace's at bat; Grace eventually walked and scored; when Hohn called Ron Oester out to end the game, Oester threw his bat and started arguing with Hohn; 2B umpire Joe West joined the argument and alledgedly pushed Oester, who had to be restrained by teammates
