Notes & reviews

Rice tripped rounding 1B
Attempted SH drew Pipp off 1B leaving it uncovered
Dazzling backward running catch
Swinging bunt
Past the running track to the LF bleachers; Goslin tripped rounding 1B or else would've had a homer.
Hit over Rice past the running track. Ruth threw himself headlong towards the plate in a long slide when his weary legs failed him.
Pretty catch off the grandstand screen
Ruth was cheered as he ran in a short distance for his first putout of the season.
Ruth in and Ward out; they both hesitated and it fell in
Running, leaping, tumbling, 1-handed circus catch; Ruth was wildly cheered.
Pretty pickup
Into RF bleachers
