Notes & reviews

Bennett started in RF due to injury to Williams who hit his arm against a door in the train as it left Pittsburgh.
Into RF bleachers
Texas Leaguer
Great running catch
Running catch
Leaping catch off RF screen
Diving attempt by Paschal but it bounded past him
To RF terrace
14 OK
Running catch
Past Gehrig
High up and far away into RF bleachers. Harry Rice stood stock still and surveyed it passing over his head like a puzzled citizen watching the flight of the Shenandoah. He saw it but didn't know what to do about it.
Off Falk's arm
Spectacular catch leaning over the pavilion seats to pick it off the straw hat of one of the spectators.
