Notes & reviews

Aided by Smith's momentary fumble (no error reported)
Into RF bleachers
Low throw
Fast fielding held Cuyler to 2B
Off Dickerman's glove
Topped roller
Bell fumbled then made a low throw
Nice catch
Neat stop but then it fell from him
Thrilling play
Moore got a glove on it but couldn't make the play
Moore caught Wright's throw barehanded
Traynor's baserunning made Dickerman hesitate
Sensational leaping 1-handed catch robbed him
Carey let it get through him
Fast play; beautiful PO
