Notes & reviews

Liner hit Brandt on the arm, then rolled rapidly to Sisler who tagged the runner.
Fast play
Wild throw into Giant dugout
Ott held smash to a single
Past 3B
Wild throw into Giant dugout
Ott fell away from an inside pitch and the Braves declared he had swung at the ball for strike three. HP Ump Hart refused to allow the claim, and Magerkurth at 1B also said Ott had not swung, but Ump Moran said he had, whereupon Hart reversed himself and called Ott out.
Caught with his back up against LF fence
