Notes & reviews

A belated May Day riot caused two fans to be ejected from the stands in the 3rd.
Scooped
Shoestring catch
Caromed off Mitchell towards 1B line
The crowd swarmed the field as he rounded 3B. Jack and two policemen made a path to the plate. The crowd then tried to pick him up after crossing home but he escaped after much struggling.
