Notes & reviews
- Running catch
- 1-handed stop
- High bounder; Pie beat throw
- Fine stop
- Thrilling bare-handed stop of the carom off Meadows' glove
- Circus stop
- Topped; Moore beat throw
- Texas Leaguer over Kelly
- Hartley's throw to Groh had Cuyler boxed but it was low and Cuyler beat the return at the plate on a close play. It was scored a double steal.
- Thrilling assist
- Fast assist; spectacular bit of fielding
- Groh was only able to limp to 2B on the long hit to deep RCF
- Cleared the RCF fence close to the former location of the scoreboard. It just missed the farthest end of the new stands falling gracefully and without interference into the shrubbery of that verdant section. One of the longest homers ever struck in Oakland. NYT: the ball rolled far down into Panther Hollow in Schenley Park.
- Pretty assist
- Marvelous stop behind 2B
- Tardy relay
- Meadows failed to cover 1B. During the AB, Carey failed on a sacrifice bunt attempt.
- Grounded through spot vacated by Kelly on hit & run. Fine relay by Kelly. Very close play.
- Hot grounder bounded over Groh
- Ordinary single skidded past Youngs; Pie tried to score when Kelly momentarily juggled the relay.
- Past Kelly
- Fine 1-handed assist
