Notes & reviews

Protest=X Suspend=19540924,,1,3,50
suspended,19540924,MIL05,protest $Bob Borkowski swung at a wild pitch by Warren Spahn for the third strike; Del Crandall raced for the ball and threw too late to Eddie Mathews to get Gus Bell; although automatically out, Borkowski ran to 1B; Mathews' throw hit Borkowski and rolled into RF; Bell and Wally Post scored; the umpires ruled Bell was out because Borkowski had illegally drawn a throw; the Reds protested the game, which was upheld; the game was resumed on 9/24 preceding the scheduled game with the Cardinals
