Notes & reviews

Before the opening pitch, Yankees' shortstop Everett Scott was honoured as playing in his 1,300th consecutive game. 'Scottie' was remembered by his home folk in Indiana by a finely polished bowling ball and new pair of bowling shoes.
Gehrig fumbled
High bounder
Meusel misjudged it
Past SS
High throw to Judge, pulling him off the bag
Fine throw home held Meusel at 3B
Running, leaping 1-handed catch; fans gave Combs 'a rear admiral salute'.
high bounder
Johnson was slow covering 1B
Texas Leaguer; wild throw past the plate
To the garden wall in LCF
Darkness loomed towards end of game; very difficult to see, and no one could follow Marberry's pitches.
