Notes & reviews
- Attempted delayed double steal fails
- Hopp brushed Vandenberg with his shoulder, and Vandenberg held the ball glaring at Hopp allowing Schoendienst to score
- Ball hits off Nicholson's glove, bounces off wall back into his glove. 1B ump Ballafant rules it a catch, but Cardinals get him to consult with other umpires who get play correct. Kurowski is put on second. Cubs thinking they should have a DP play the game under protest
- Wild throw to the plate
- Sacrifice down six runs and one out?
