Notes & reviews

  • rain through the first three innings
  • Howie Fox dropped the throw when he collided with Hank Thompson near 1B; Reds manager Bucky Walter argued that Thompson had knocked the ball out intentionally
  • Bill Rigney started to throw to 2B then saw that he could get to the base before Hank Thompson; Rigney slid feet-first into the bag just ahead of the Peanuts Lowery; Reds manager Bucky Walter argued the call and was suspended the next day for this confrontation
