Notes & reviews

  • Mickey Mantle out on appeal for missing 2B on an apparent single
  • fans came onto field, thinking the game was over due to Sunday curfew; Yankees manager Casey Stengel argued that game should go to limit of 6:59 so the field was cleared and the game resumed; Stengel forgot to insert a center fielder and Billy Martin went there for only ML game in outfield
  • Game called for curfew
