Notes & reviews
- Game stopped when Yogi Berra complained of being blinded by a a shiny object beyond centerfield; police found a man in an apartment reflecting the sunlight off a mirror when the Yankees were batting; 2B umpire Ed Hurley discussed this on the TV show 'What's My Line?' that evening
- great stop by Cox
- off the center field wall
- great stop by Collins
- off McDougald's shoulder
