Notes & reviews

Bare-handed grab by Kamm
CDN: 23/SH.1-2
Tough hop; Davis juggled it, then made a hurried throw to 1B
Infield was playing in
Great stop
Gem of a play behind 2B
Boone was bothered by the sun; the ball hit the tip of one of his fingers and dropped safe, while Ike staggered around holding on to the injured hand.
