Notes & reviews

Remarkable 1-handed pickup
Running catch
Easy DP but Terry failed to squeeze Kelly's perfect toss
Tall fly fell between Kelly & Youngs
1-handed catch
Off Brown's pitching hand
NY Times reported Bentley batted right-handed initially, a strategic move by McGraw to block the catcher's view on the ensuing double steal.
Brilliant catch; nearly fell into a box
