Notes & reviews

Gehrig escaped rundown and returned safely to 3rd but Meusel was tagged out between 2nd and 3rd
Settlemire left game with an injured arm
Myer scored from 2nd while Gehrig argued call at 1st
Rogell dropped popup in shallow LF. Runners ran to next base despite 'infield fly' being called. Paschal scored from 3rd before Koenig was tagged out trying for 3rd.
