Notes & reviews

Sisler out with inflamed left leg; left this evening on train for Ohio because of mother's death. Ken Williams out with neuritis in his arm.
To the deep corner in LCF
Giard ran to 3B line and tagged Ward
Great stop & throw
High into LF bleachers
Texas Leaguer; Meusel didn't get a good jump on it
Paschal showed great speed
Fast play
To deep LCF
Shoestring catch of low liner
To the running track
Close play at 3B
Combs could've easily made 2B but Rice appeared to get in his way and threw him out of his stride. Coach O'Leary and the rest of the Yankees protested; all three umpires were consulted but none had seen the interference.
Into RF bleachers
