Notes & reviews

Hit on the leg
To RF terrace
Hit sharply past B.Harris
Into RF bleachers
Into RF bleachers; NYT: RCF bleachers
Great slide stretched it to a double
Yes, 34 out at 1B
Attempted force on high bounder but Peck beat throw
Hard bounder off B.Harris' glove
Running catch
Soared over J.Harris to RF bleachers
Thunderous clout to LCF landed on the running track and bounced to the fence. He scored without a slide.
NYT: Miller Huggins took his favorite lineup and shook it to pieces. Wally Pipp, after more than 10 years as regular first baseman, was benched in favor of Lou Gehrig, former Columbia U. fence-wrecker.
