Notes & reviews

  • Threw low and wide and into RF
  • Throw caromed off Friberg's shin into LF.
  • Nearly to the clubhouse wall
  • Into LCF bleachers; 3rd row, alongside Clubhouse Lane
  • Hit & run; Harper beat throw to 2B
  • Nice play
  • Off the scoreboard
  • Sinking liner that Heathcote picked off the ground
  • Heathcote's right hand hung loosely at his side giving all evidence that he was hit hard.
