Notes & reviews

Weather: Cold, raw blasts of wind which whistled across Wrigley Field to the discomfort of the fans.
Clever somersault catch
Great pickup and running toss
Over Wilson's head
Wind blew pop fly out of Grimm's reach for a lucky 2-bagger.
Bounced past Bartell
Between Grantham's ankles
Hit & run
L.Waner attempted a shoestring catch
Hargreaves bruised a finger in stopping a wide pitch.
1-handed catch
