Notes & reviews

Greenberg threw wild to 3B. Bartell tripped Rosenthal as he started for home. Umpire Hubbard ruled obstruction and waved Rosenthal home.
Detroit coach Miller ejected by 1B umpire Moriarty for arguing that Kuhel's ball hit wall; umpire said a fan batted it back onto the field, so home run
