Notes & reviews

  • Game one of an extraordinary doubleheader involving three teams; this game was played in the afternoon and game two was at night against the Twins
  • White Sox second baseman Tony Graffanino and Indians Robby Alomar cause a bench-clearing incident when Alomar slid into Graffanino; Alomar's brother Sandy was ejected by HP umpire Tim Welke
