Notes & reviews

  • Reds Kolp, not in game, ejected by 1B umpire McCormick for arguing Kelly was safe at second
  • Picinich batted out of turn and fouled out; the proper batter, Pittinger, was called out after Phillies pointed out the mistake
  • Chuck Dressen left after being spiked by Freddy Leach
