Notes & reviews
- Travis Jackson pulled up lame after first game which caused a Giant line-up scramble. Jack Bentley's 1st ever non-pitcher position (starting RF)
- Holke blocked the smash
- Swinging bunt
- Lindstrom's hand was spiked making the play on Critz
- Hit & run; Roush sought to catch the Giants napping
- Nice play
- Low throw
- Farrell rounded 1B and was doubled before he could get back
- Spectacular catch of Farrell's high throw
- NYEW coverage ended here
- High throw
- Low throw past Holke
- Running, leaping catch close to the clubhouse
- Remarkable leaping, 1-handed catch against LF wall
