Notes & reviews

Protest=H
Al Luplow jumped and caught the ball; he landed on the wall on his back and tumbled into the Red Sox bullpen; Red Sox manager Johnny Pesky objected to the ruling that the ball was caught; Pesky claimed that Luplow caught the ball in the bullpen and thus it should be a home run; Pesky protested the game
