Notes & reviews

Past Hornsby
Fine catch
Nice running catch
SB while Rhem stood on the mound
Bad hop off Hornsby's glove
Close play at home on attempted double steal
Pretty catch
Sensational catch
Good stop but Carey beat him to the bag
Fast play
Fumbled easy chance; it rolled into CF
2 runs scored on a very wild pitch
Remarkable catch down the line by Wright with his back to the plate. He wheeled around and made a perfect throw home. McInnis, who had rushed over from 1B, took the throw, and tagged Toporcer ten feet in front of Gooch. (There's a great picture of the putout in PGT.)
Low throw
Nice catch
Robbed of a hit; brilliant play on both ends
Fine play
Low throw past Bottomley
Off Morrison's glove
