After being 'dusted off' by Knight, Cuyler hit a screaming liner off RCF scoreboard on next pitch.
Fonseca was boxed; Friberg was caught off 1B
Off Wrightstone's bare hand
Hopped over Harper
PGT: Meadows pitched nearly a dozen pitches to Wilson who fouled off four or five.
Texas Leaguer
Over RF wall
Knocked down the drive
