Notes & reviews

Thrilling 1-handed stop; close play at 1B
Pretty running catch with his back to the plate
Off Dugan's arm
Perkins declared safe after a consultation by the umpires; the Yankees argued long and hard to no avail. During this AB Dykes missed HR in LF seats (foul by a foot).
Poole stepped on 1B and threw to Galloway who chased Combs back toward 1B.
Near HR off top of fence; bounced back so rapidly Poole didn't want to chance Meusel's arm.
