Notes & reviews

  • 3bman Stock caught popped up bunt but threw wildly to 2B trying to double-off Henline; the ball went into CF so Henline advanced to 3B; however Ring was out trying to advance to 2B; Ring slid hard knocking SS Lavan to the ground so Henline ran home and scored ahead of Lavan's belated throw (Henline was credited with a stolen base)
