met him halfway and they ex-
changed punches before Plate
Umpire Ed Sudol could inter-

Cimoli was pushed to the
ground and Cardwell jumped
on him as the players from
both teams-including the bull

action.
There was some pushing and
pulling between players while
order was being restored. Robin
Roberts and Cimoli exchanged
words. and Roberts had to be
restrained from getting the
rhubarb going again.
Both Cardwell and Cimoli
remained in the game. The
Highlander made one more
throw--a ball-to Cimoli and
gave way to Jack Meyer. who
struck out Cimoh.
