Notes & reviews

on attemped double-steal catcher McCarty faked throw to 2nd and Luderus ran into out at home
HP umpire Byron delayed game to clear fans from bleachers off field, threatening to forfeit game; at end of game Dodger manager Robinson wrapped his arms around Byron to protect him which allowed him to leave the field safely
