Notes & reviews

Frankie Hayes missed a catch near the Yankees dugout and received taunts from their bench; he tried to get at Johnny Lindell but was restrained
as Johnny Lindell came to bat, he and Frankie Hayes resumed their argument and nearly fought; they were separated as both benches cleared
Marius Russo struck by line drive on right little finger; left with injured finger
