Notes & reviews

  • Into LF bleachers
  • Wonderful 1-handed catch against the stone wall in deep CF robbed Williams of HR.
  • 8/F? PQ box scores did not credit Blades with PO today
  • Over the fence; no field indicated
  • Through Cooney
  • HP umpire Quigley ejected Johnny Stuart from Cardinals bench
  • Past Parkinson
  • Henline dropped the relay throw
