Notes & reviews

Way over the scoreboard; hit a front porch on Cherry Street
Off McManus' shins
Over Rice who misjudged it
Off Blaeholder's glove
Over LF fence
Off scoreboard
Off Blaeholder's glove
Against scoreboard
The throw home was dropped by Manion, allowing Heilmann to return to 3B, but Manion's attempt to catch Alexander off 2B was low, allowing Heilmann to score and the other runners to advance.
Over top tier of RF bleachers into Trumbull Avenue
Johnson: fine catch
Off Kress' ankle
