Notes & reviews

  • Wide throw
  • Over RF wall
  • Caromed off Betts' shin back to Henline
  • Past the angled CF bleachers
  • Over RF fence
  • Brown's bat shattered into three pieces
  • To the flagpole
  • Off Tierney's chest
  • It slid out of High's hand as he turned to throw to 2B
  • Wheat fumbled
  • Off the scoreboard
  • Over RF wall, 'across the building line into the subway'
  • Ehrhardt's throw nearly went to the RF boxes but Fournier stabbed it 1-handed and fired to the plate. Burns stumbled/fell a dozen feet from home.
