Notes & reviews

  • the Pilots changed the lineup after submitting it to the umpires; order was Harper, Simpson, Comer, Davis, Gil, Hegan, McNertney, Oyler and Marshall; this means that they batted out of turn for most of the game
  • Tommy Davis doubled in two runs but was batting out of order; the Orioles objected and Dick Simpson, the proper batter, was called out
