Notes & reviews

Joe Judge batted out of turn but made an out
George Sisler batted out of turn but made an out
Muddy Ruel batted out of turn but made an out
Joe Judge batted out of turn and walked with the bases loaded; the Athletics talked to HP Umpire Bill McGowan and George Sisler was called out as the proper batter
