Notes & reviews

Gerber dropped Sisler's throw
Spectacular shoestring catch
Popped between Vangilder and Gerber
Failed hit & run
Goslin should've had it
Close play at 3B; Senators put up a loud howl at Ump Holmes. Play was suspended for several minutes during the argument.
McManus advanced during the argument
Past McMillan
Close play; Sisler slid under Ruel who landed on top of him. When Ump Nallin called him out, Sisler pushed Ruel off him and went after Nallin. Then McManus got into it and had a few words with Ruel; it looked like a near free-for-all but nobody was hurt.
Diving catch
Running catch to Brownie dugout
The game was temporarily halted to clear several hundred straw hats and seat cushions off the field.
Another straw hat shower resulted
