Notes & reviews
- Hit the scorboard
- Fast play
- Caromed off Toporcer's shoes down LF line
- It began to rain; play was delayed to allow the bleacherites to get into the grandstand. Time was called when the downpour increased. Delay of 10 minutes.
- Game was again held up due to rain and darkness
- Fine catch
- Knocked down hard drive and beat him to bag
- Came in fast for a good catch
- Off the scoreboard
- Hit O'Farrell on the shin
- Hit the fence just over Wrightstone
- Rhem caught the toss, stumbled, and missed the bag
- Hit the wall just out of Smith's reach
- Off Rhem's foot
- Williams decoyed O'Farrell at the wall, turned at the last second, and caught the carom. Good play by Wilson on 1-hopper from Kimmick.
- High bounder
- Hornsby's first appearance in a week (ankle). With 1-0 count to Hornsby, rain caused another temporary halt to the game.
- Hornsby's foul went over the wall into Broad St, foul by only about 12 feet.
