Notes & reviews

Sisler vigorously protested the decision at the plate and the heated argument continued for several minutes.
Bounced off Kolp's shins
Into RCF bleachers
Wingard's ML debut
Into RF stands
Spectacular running catch
Into RF bleachers
Off Wingard's shins
The Browns swarmed Ump Hildebrand to dispute the decision. He was only saved from violence through the efforts of Severeid and Chet Thomas.
