Notes & reviews

  • Ladies' Day; a half-hour before game time all seats were filled. The overflow crowd was allowed on the field; a hit into any part of the overflow crowd went as a two-bagger.
  • Over Cuyler's head, the ball dropping into the crowd, but it was difficult for the umpires to see if the ball had cleared the screen in front of the right field bleachers. Hendrick was stopped at 3B by Ump Moran. Immediately the Dodgers rushed off their bench claiming that the hit cleared the screen for a home run. There was a long argument, but the Dodgers' kick was in vain.
  • Bissonette overslid 3B
  • Into LF crowd
  • Through English's legs
  • Into RF crowd
  • Knocked down low line drive
  • Spectacular diving catch
  • Threw to Dodgers bench
  • Into RF crowd
  • Great stop
  • 'Cuyler sent the crowd into an uproar when he singled past Moore, scoring Wilson with the tying run. Wilson beat Hendrick's perfect throw to the plate by a narrow margin...'
  • Into RCF crowd
  • Nice running catch
  • Into LF crowd
  • Into RF crowd
  • Might be Penner's 1st ML appearance in 13 years!
  • Over RF screen
