Notes & reviews

Into RF stands, just inside foul line
Just out of Leach's reach
Apparent RBI single turned into force when Hubbell was out on appeal for missing 2B
Past Lindstrom
Running catch
Cohen got a glove on it but it got away from him. He then made a wild throw to 2B.
Sharp bounder off Terry's knee to Hubbell
Great 1-hand pickup of smash but Ott beat the toss to Clark with a diving, tumbling play.
1-hand catch close to LF wall
Hendrick and Frederick collided in short RCF, the ball falling between them.
