Notes & reviews
- Bob Meusel juggled the ball; Goose Goslin started for 3B, stopped, then started again
- Bucky Harris ejected by HP umpire Pants Rowland
- Senators coach Onslow ejected by HP umpire Rowland for arguing called third strike
- Washington owner Clark Griffith requested the league to remove umpire Pants Rowland for the rest of the series; in addition to declaring Rowland incompetent for calls in this game, Griffith also noted the mini riot from fans against Rowland after the game; the request was denied
