Notes & reviews
- Protest=H
- Fine pickup
- Slow roller
- On a sacrifice bunt try, Lindstrom ran into Hendrick and in the judgment of Ump Pfirman, knocked the ball out of Hendrick's hand as he was tagged. Because it was ruled to be interference by Lindstrom, Terry was ordered back to 1B.
- Mgr McGraw notified the umpires that because of Pfirman's decision sending Terry back to 1B, the Giants would play the balance of the game under protest.
- Into upper deck in deep CF
- Nice running catch
- Off Clark's glove
- Fine pickup
- Infield hit off Clark's glove
- Into upper deck of RF stands
- Into upper tier of LF stands
- Along 3B line
- Into lower deck of RF stands
- Running catch
- Into upper tier of LF stands
