Notes & reviews

Hendrick hurt his leg sliding into 2B last inning
Bancroft lost the ball in the sun
Into LCF bleachers
Over RF wall
The ball struck Richbourg on the right side of his head as he tried to catch it on the carom. He fell to the ground in a semi-conscious condition and was unable to continue.
