Notes & reviews
- Jerry Priddy argued a called strike on the 3-0 pitch; he then got into an argument with Birdie Tebbetts
- Jerry Priddy walked on the next pitch, and as he headed for 1B Birdie Tebbetts said something that made him turn around and head for Tebbetts; both benches cleared but order was restored without any ejections
- George Kell left with a pulled groin muscle
