Umpires wash out Tigers Twins game in mud
The Tigers led 4-0 after six, but a bottom sixth halt due to mud on the field ended the game with Minnesota ahead 4-0. Umpire-in-chief Jerry Neudecker cited solid mud as the reason for calling off play after delays totaling 94 minutes. Manager Ralph Houk raged in the Detroit clubhouse, vowing to report the umpires. Other AL games saw Yankees edge White Sox 5-4, Red Sox beat A's 8-3, Orioles top Rangers 4-1, and Angels blank Brewers 2-0.
