Notes & reviews

  • Neis let it go through him (Neis was playing the sun field field today because of Welsh's injured ankle).
  • Bare-handed stop over 2B; robbed of hit
  • Running catch near LF fence
  • Freigau fumbled the throw-in
  • Phenomenal 1-handed jumping catch. Mueller crashed into the wall and fell like a log but hung on. He was down until a few teammates ran out and picked him up; he was able to walk to the bench and continue in the game.
  • To the scoreboard
  • SLS reported O'Neil with this groundout to end the inning, but then they skipped over Cooney's 7th inning AB as if BSN batted out of turn.
  • To deep CF
  • To deep RCF; mighty wallop carried on the fly into the RCF corner, away beyond the bleachers. One of the longest drives ever seen here.
