Notes & reviews

Fine stop and throw robbed Flack of hit
Wide throw. Hornsby was given a splendid reception as he stepped to the plate (he had been out of the lineup with a knee injury since 5/25).
Great throw nipped Kopf
Fine running catch
Beat out infield hit past Oeschger
Box scores reported no WP
Reached out and caught the foul near the pavilion
Fast play on slow bounder
Robbed of extra-base hit when Southworth dashed down and got his wallop.
BG: 3/BG/SH.1-2
Kopf fumbled then threw wild
Came in fast
McInnis didn't even try for it
Liner went through Boeckel, but Smith recovered in time. Assist to Boeckel?
Wonderful, leaping stop of high bounder
During the AB, Ainsmith stepped out of the box because Oeschger was so deliberate in his pitching. Ump O'Day made Oeschger pitch and called a strike on Ainsmith.
McInnis protested Ump Moran's decision at 1B
