Note that both teams played their whole roster... the game didn't have any real importance to the standings... it was a fun game for both teams... luckily, it was a tight game that was exciting to watch.

If the game was important, John Jordan would have gone deeper into the game for the Yanks and fewer subs would have been used for both teams.

Littleton would not have started for Meraux... he was the pitcher that pitched the least for the Tigers and just was given a chance to show what he could do in a meaningless game.
