Notes & reviews

15-game hitting streak
Delayed steal
After Danforth pitched one ball to Manush, Umpires Geisel and Moriarty took the ball away from him and a long argument ensued between Cobb, Sisler, and Severeid.
Robertson had Haney trapped between 2B & 3B but threw into LF; possible assists on the play.
