Notes & reviews

Red Smith (SS) and Fred Heimach (P) were injured by batted balls while pitching batting practice for PHA. Smith was hit by Heimach, and Heimach was hit on the right knee by someone named Bannister. Heimach limped the rest of the day.
Low/wide throw
1-handed catch
Texas Leaguer
Great stop/play
24-game hitting streak
Carlyle fumbled
Rolled right through Boone
Brilliant running catch
Jumping 1-handed stab
Great stop behind 3B; snappy throw
Over LF fence
Landed atop a roof on 20th Street; 2nd house from the alley. It was hit so hard RFer Welch never moved.
Great 1-handed pickup and throw
Past Wamby
Guessing B-2
High hopper; Lucey's futile throw to 1B was wide and skipped into the RF vacuum. Infield playing DP depth.
