Notes & reviews
- Hit in the back with a curve
- The ball hopped through an opening in the screen that extends below the grandstand. Harper went through the bull- pen gate, retrieved the ball, and hurled it over the screen to Holke. Pirates argued it should've been ruled a home run since it passed completely out of the umpires' view.
- Nice running catch off his knees
- Texas Leaguer
- Clever catch
- Good running stop and throw
- Hubbell deflected it
- Bounced over Parkinson
- Nice running catch robbed Schmidt
- Adams drew a loud round of cheering
- Good try by Parkinson
- Hot smash
