Notes & reviews

  • Texas Leaguer dropped in front of Bennett, prompting the crowd to yell for holdout Baby Doll Jacobson (to play CF).
  • Bounced off Davis' shins/glove
  • Through Bennett, to the far corner of CF. Again the fans yelled for Jacobson.
  • Into RF bleachers
  • Bush didn't wait to be taken out; he voluntarily walked briskly to the dugout.
  • Giard's ML debut
  • Bischoff's ML debut
  • Nice stop
  • Into LF bleachers
  • At the close of the game, fans crowded around Browns Owner Phil Ball's box to boo, jeer, and call him abusive names. He remained seated and laughed in defiance of the mob. Plainclothesmen were rushed in to push back the growing crowd as they echoed, 'We want Jake' Fans believed that Browns' losing streak would not have happened if only Ball would come to terms with Jacobson who was holding out.
