Notes & reviews

  • Lucky single when ball got away from Robertson
  • Caught near the grandstand
  • Spectacular catch
  • Spectacular running catch; Williams advanced when Cobb's return throw got away from Rigney. Box scores credited Cobb with an assist today; guessing here.
  • Jacobson was ruled to have trapped Cobb's low liner. The Browns protested claiming it was a clean catch, but they were overruled by the umpires.
  • Unsure of scoring; box scores imply: 53.3-3;1-2
  • Infield popup fell between Holloway and Jones
  • Neat pickup
  • The ball got away from Williams
  • The ball seemed to be foul; the Browns protested but Ump Ormsby refused to change his decision.
  • Bennett's ML debut
  • Thurston's ML debut
