Notes & reviews

  • Ernie Banks struck on left knee and removed on stretcher
  • Debut game for Leo Cardenas
  • Eddie Kasko beat out an infield hit; Bob Anderson's throw got away from Ed Bouchee with Bob Will backing up the play
  • George Altman tapped to Gordy Coleman who tossed to Joe Nuxhall; 1B umpire Ed Vargo ruled Nuxhall failed to touch the bag; Nuxhall bumped Vargo and was ejected; Nuxhall continued to argue from the dugout and threw a bat onto the field
