It seems that center fielder Devon White was in the clubhouse finishing up a phone call when the game started. Right Fielder Chili Davis tried to alert the umpires but apparently could not get their attention so the Angels played with eight defenders for a portion of the first inning. The Angels won won anyway 7-3. You can see that defense is overrated.
I think most phones back then were landlines attached to a cord. This one might even have been a rotary.
Today with cell phones, White is out there.
