Notes & reviews

  • Nice running catch
  • Mokan made no attempt to run to 1B
  • Deflected by Glazner
  • The intended base thrown to was not reported
  • Nice catch
  • Through Hollocher
  • Steals were made '...while the pitcher was wondering what he would pitch next.' Friberg beat the throw home. The ball briefly got away from Wilson; he snatched it and made a frantic throw to catch Heathcote who had rounded 3B.
  • Into LF bleachers
