Notes & reviews

  • Protest=X
  • game halted by rain at this point; the Mets protested the game because the umpires did not wait at least 30 minutes after suspending play; NL President Chub Feeney upheld the protest and ordered that the game be resumed on July 26; on July 13, the Mets withdrew their protest after Feeney had ruled in their favor
