Notes & reviews

  • L.Waner twisted his ankle on the play and time was called. After first aid was given he resumed his position.
  • Comorosky tried to duck a high pitch but his bat hit the ball.
  • Bounded to the little fence in front of the bleachers
  • Clever running catch
  • Great 1-handed catch close to fence in deep CF
  • Traynor, by fast stepping, stretched it into a triple
  • Spectacular running catch
  • Over RF wall, shattering the glass in a window on the far side of the street which extends beyond RF.
  • Wicked bounder through RF; as the ball caromed away from P.Waner and came back toward the infield, Bartell recovered it and fired to Clarke, but it was jolted out of his grasp as Herman plunged into 2B.
  • Over RF wall; it came down on top of the tall fence, took a lofty hop, and landed on a house top back of the park.
  • Over RF wall '9,000 fans went into an orgy of joy in which straw hats poured upon the ball field in countless numbers.'
