Notes & reviews

Pretty stop
Cuyler failed twice to bunt before looking at strike 3
Pretty 1-handed catch by Niehaus of Traynor's high throw
Bottomley tagged Smith
1-handed scoop
Diving stop but Niehaus couldn't hold the hurried low throw.
Wright fumbled momentarily
High bounder, low throw
Thrilling assist
Fine stop; Moore tried for DP but was too late
Fine burst of speed by Carey after making turn at 2B
Douthit threw to 2B thinking Cuyler would not try to score
Off the scoreboard
Hornsby swung and missed with count of 3-and-1. Off Traynor's glove but was almost nailed at 1B by Pie.
Nice stop on bounder over Yde
Fast play
High bounder off Yde's glove
Moore couldn't hold onto the hard bounder
Off Wright's bare hand
Wright tried to get out of the way of the pitch. Bottomley knocked it down then dove for the bag to beat Wright.
Unassisted triple play. With hit & run on, Wright was already moving towards 2B; he caught the liner a few steps from the bag, stepped on 2B then tagged Hornsby near 2B.
