Notes & reviews

The biggest crowd that had gathered at Dunn Field since 1926 It overflowed the stands and banked in a long crescent behind ropes stretched across LF.
Hit & run
Got away from Durocher
Through Combs
Gardner tagged Bengough
Diving stop
Nice stop
The ball jumped into the crowd on the grass just beyond the chalk mark.
Deflected by Shaute
Running catch
Into the old wooden bleachers in LF
Moore's throw hit Gardner
Nice stop
Time was taken out to repair Robertson, who bruised a leg in trying for the plate.
