Notes & reviews

this actually Lefevre batting out of order, in Hubbel's 7th spot Because Lefevre PR in 9th spot, when Sicking out Hubbel got Sicking's 7th spot
Only 73 noticed the bating order screw up Fascinating-Kauff can't bat out of order because PH. who he bats for changes as Kauff has first pitch thrown to him Before first pitch thrown, appeal would put out Burns and make Kauff PH for Bancroft. After first pitch, Snyder is proper batter, so Kauff bats for Lefevre!
