Notes & reviews
- Protest=V
- Ben Oglivie was called safe at HP when he swerved to the left and slid around Jeff Torborg; Angels manager Del Rice argued with HP umpire Hank Morgenweck, who eventually asked 3B umpire Marty Springstead for help; Springstead ruled that Oglivie did run outside the baseline; the call was reversed and Oglivie ruled out; Red Sox manager Eddie Kasko charged the plate and Red Sox players threw towels out of the dugout; Kasko faked fainting on the field and was ejected by 2B umpire John Rice; Phil Gagliano ejected by Rice from the bench; the Red Sox protested the game
