Notes & reviews

Smashed a low liner right back at the pitcher, hitting Hubbell just below the left knee, knocking him to the ground. Time was called for first aid attention.
Hubbell got a round of applause
Over Roush's head to the Capt. Eddie Grant monument
Hubbell's bruised leg became too painful to continue
Into lower tier of LF stands
Douthit fumbled
Farrell ran into his own bunt
Into upper tier of LF stands
Into lower seats of RF stands
