Notes & reviews

Mickey Owen slid high into Pete Coscarart; as Owen left the field, Leo Durocher yelled at Owen, who turned to Durocher; Durocher moved toward Owen but 3B umpire Bick Campbell got between the two; both benches cleared; Owen threw a punch at Durocher and a scrum ensued; Owen ejected by Campbell
