Notes & reviews

Roush badly misjudged it in the sun
Roush advanced to 3B on the throw home, and tried to score when it took a mean bound over Henline.
Bounced away from Mokan
BOUNCE HR Tremendous blow to deep RF over Durning; it hit the hard turf and bounced into the bleachers.
Mean little hop bounded off Critz' knee into RF
