Notes & reviews

light rain began to fall
pbp account ends here, rest deduced $rain squall delayed game for 7 minutes
Johnson crashed into Wagner to score, but thought he had missed plate, so he went back to tag and gave a football block to Wagner; the dugouts emptied and several fights broke out with Hutchinson of the Tigers and Houk of the Yankees ejected
Keller pulled a back muscle while scoring and left game
