- Fine catch near the line
- Fine catch and neat off-balance throw
- 1-handed catch
- Low throw to Thompson
- Thrilling assist
- Delayed steal; Thompson dashed for 3B as Hartnett threw low to 2B. Grigsby threw over Freigau.
- Over Grigsby
- Over LF wall
- Fine play
- Yde and Hartnett almost came to blows after the latter blocked Yde off the plate; Yde wrestled with HP umpire Rigler trying to get at Hartnett. Yde was ejected by Rigler.

- Momentarily fumbled, then threw wide
- Wheeled to throw to 3B but Traynor had charged in
