Notes & reviews

flyball to shallow left field that Wanninger and Jacobson each thought the other would catch
Harris and Speaker were both trapped in rundowns, with the result that both wound up at third base; Speaker was tagged out as the base 'belonged' to Harris
wild relay throw by Harris backed up by Ruel who threw Hartley out when he started for second base
