Notes & reviews

  • 23-game hitting streak
  • Hit in the back
  • Squibbed not 10 feet from the plate; Picinich overran the twisty ball
  • Wonderful sprinting catch
  • Off Lucey's shins
  • Great stop, hard throw; close play
  • Struck out on 5 pitches
  • Texas Leaguer
  • Hit railing of upper LF tier
  • Hard-running catch
  • Great stop held it to a single
  • Post: fumble; Globe: throwing error; Ledger: Todt had to dive for the wide throw
  • Sensational stab of liner headed to CF. Lucey tried to double-up Welch.
  • The Sox fielders swung around toward RF for Bagwell, a notorious pull-hitter, just like teams do for Cy Williams. He slapped a long liner to LF that rolled to the wall.
