Notes & reviews

First scheduled twilight game in major league history (started at 6pm and ended at 7:15 as players rushed to complete game before it got too dark due to dark rain clouds, especially late in game)
Jimmy Smith declared out for being hit by own batted ball
A steady rain fell the rest of the game
