Notes & reviews

• Suspend=19480921,NYC15,11,9,53 Protest=Y
• suspended,19480921,NYC15,illegal substitution $Hank Behrman relieved Carl Erskine with Eddie Bockman still at HP; Bockman grounded out to end the game as a Dodgers victory; Pirates manager Billy Meyer protested that Erskine had failed to finish pitching to one batter; NL President Ford Frick agreed and ordered the game continued with Erskine facing Bockman; the game was resumed in Brooklyn on 9/21 with the same umpires
