Notes & reviews

Protest=V
1B umpire Jim Odom pointed foul but said fair on the ball hit by Reggie Smith down the RF line; Athletics Manager Dick Williams argued with Odom for a long time, during which Williams threw his cap in the air and later kicked it about 10 yards; Williams was ejected by Odom; Williams protested the game but that was lifted when the Athletics won
