Notes & reviews
- Wally Gerber had stopped at 2B, but when the Yankees crowded Umpire Brick Owens protesting the call at 1B, Gerber dashed to 3B
- Ken Williams hurt his ankle sliding into 1B during the run down in the 3rd inning
- this was originally ruled a catch by Herschel Bennett, who relayed to Urban Shocker, who nailed Ruth at 3B; Umpire Brick Owens ruled the play a trap and held a discussion with Umpire Brick Owens; everntually the call was changed to a single; Babe Ruth was placed at 3B and Bob Meusel at 1B; the Browns protested the reversal and refused to play for about 7 minutes; total delay about 22 minutes
