Notes & reviews

In the 7th inning Rigney pitched for the Sox and loaded the bases; York hit CF fence with a drive that might have been IPHR but Greenberg was confused running bases and only got to 3B so York got 2-run double; Tigers scored another run to make score 15-4; in the home half with 2 outs Appling walked and game was halted; game reverted to end of the 6th $Game called for rain and second scheduled game postponed
