Notes & reviews

As Medwick ran to 1B he found himself between Camilli and the ball. Medwick kicked the ball towards 1B and ran to 2B. Durocher argued interference. Ump Moran ordered Martin back to 2B & Medwick to 1B.
Stainback crashed into wall chasing Moore's fly. He threw the ball back in then fell to the ground. Koy replaced him.
