Notes & reviews

  • Weather: heavy morning rain made the outfield soggy but the infield was dry enough.
  • Long running catch
  • Tobin fumbled
  • Past Robertson
  • During Gerber's PA, Schang's pickoff throw to 2B hit Jacobson in the back of the head and he went down under the blow. After several minutes he was able to resume play.
  • 54/SH...?
  • Barehanded stop
  • Off Ward's glove
  • Ruth let it go through him
  • Over Horan
