Notes & reviews
- Bottomley leaped 5 feet to the right to spear it
- Cheap double
- Off Decatur's glove
- Over the scoreboard; landed on boardwalk in Broad Street
- Sliced a Texas Leaguer
- Wilson reached into the box seat
- Nice stop; Blades just beat DP throw to 1B
- Hit the wall halfway up
- PDL said 4th ball was intentional
- Slow topper; close play at 1B ruled safe by Ump O'Day
- Leaping catch
- Passed after a couple of fouls
- Past 2B
- Bell made a fast play but his desperate underhand heave to 1B required a jumping catch by Hornsby.
- High bound past Bell
