Notes & reviews
- Mgr McGraw again watched the game from the stands. Today was Golden Jubilee celebration for Cubs; flag raised. Many 'old-timers' at game including Deacon White who caught in the Cubs' first game at Louisville on April 25, 1876. He is one of two survivors of Chicago's original lineup that year (1B man Cal McVey is the other, living in California). Tom Foley, who organized Chicago's first pro team in 1869, was also honored. Judge Landis and Prez Heydler attended.
- Wide throw
- Wind carried it into RF bleachers
- High bounder deflected by Bush
- Pittenger cut in front of Freigau and both lost it
- Bad hop off Freigau's shoulder
- Into the remotest part of the LCF roofless veranda
- Into RF bleachers
- Lucky single over Jackson
- Into RF bleachers
