Notes & reviews
- Fine catch
- Nice play
- Close to the grandstand
- Remarkable backhanded pickup
- High bounder hopped out of Greenfield's glove
- Wind carried it away from Jackson
- Great stop
- When Frisch's throw to 1B was wide, May dashed for 2B
- Meusel booted it
- Over Kelly; hit the grandstand wall in RF
- Attempted double steal; Holke was tagged before Roush scored
- Over Meusel
- Critz knocked it down
