Notes & reviews

Red Sox manager Cronin complained to the umpires about Johnny Allen's undershirt which had ragged sleeves from diamond shaped holes he had cut into them for ventilation; the umpires told Allen to change his shirt but he refused to do so; he then refused to pitch and stalked into the clubhouse; the game resumed after a ten minute delay
