Notes & reviews

Over the shoulder catch on the terrace
Sprinting catch
Off Gregg's glove
Threw high over Dugan
Leaping catch
Beautiful throw retired the diving Wanninger
Hoyt let Meusel's throw-in escape him and roll to pavilion
Wonderful backhand running catch robbed Gehrig
Judge was run down between 1B & 2B
Into LF pavilion
It was after 6:15pm; the shades of night were falling fast
Over Ogden
Fanned on a wide 3rd strike
Into LF bleachers; Meusel was met by a mob of fans as he trotted over the plate, and was given a big reception as he fought his way to the dugout.
