Notes & reviews
- Tom Sturdivant's first pitch to Ray Boone sailed over his head struck his bat and glanced off his shoulder; Boone charged the mound and both benches cleared; Boone and Sturdivant ejected by HP umpire Nestor Chylak
- 370 feet
- the ball struck the LF pole and caromed back onto the field; the Tigers to argued that the ball was in play
- Lou Sleater went into a full windup with the bases loaded; Hank Bauer tried to steal 2B, realized his mistake, and headed back to 1B; Frank House threw to 1B and Earl Torgeson threw to 3B, allowing Bill Skowron to score before the Tigers could catch Bobby Richardson in a rundown for the third out
