Notes & reviews

  • Martin upended while tagging Reese; Stengel's argument that Reese interfered with Martin was unsuccessful
  • down the right field line
  • checked swing hit down the third base line
  • Ford left third early, began to return, but did not re-tag, then was thrown out to complete DP
  • off the wall in the left field corner
  • off Gilliam's glove
  • off Labine's glove
  • high bouncer between third and the mound
