Notes & reviews

  • Batted ball struck Ump Klem
  • Felix lost it in the sun
  • Meusel took 3B and Lindstom 2B when Neis fumbled
  • Past Kelly
  • The sun bothered Youngs
  • Tried to steal while Nehf held the ball
  • The wind carried it over Harris
  • Marvelous running 1-handed jumping catch
  • Bounced over Nehf
  • Bounced off Nehf's glove
  • Lindstrom was spiked on the left forearm as he tagged Neis, dropping the ball; time was taken while the arm was dressed.
  • First player ever to clear LF fence on the fly here. It cleared the fence by 20 ft and was about 15 ft inside the foul line. The wind favored it.
  • O'Neil was hit on the foot; guessing PO
  • To LCF fence
  • Low throw
