Notes & reviews

With the count 2-1, Yankee Mgr McCarthy left the dugout to protest to Ump Magerkurth that Cooper was not pausing before each pitch after bringing his arms together.
Brown: leaping catch
Gordon: over-the-shoulder catch
Musial misjudged it and barely made somersaulting catch
Lanier muffed return throw from Keller after pickoff attempt
Bad bounce hit Rizzuto in the face
