Notes & reviews

Protest=H
Washington manager Cronin and several players argued for twenty minutes that the ball was foul. Washington formally protested the game, arguing that HP umpire Owens should have asked for help from 1B umpire Van Graflan; Washington trainer Mike Martin ejected by Owens
Game 2 of scheduled doubleheader was postponed due to rain
