Notes & reviews

  • Into RF bleachers
  • Dykes chased across the diamond and ran down Lary
  • Cochrane cracked his bat
  • Scratched a single off Quinn's glove
  • Gehrig slid into 1B ahead of Simmons who kicked strenuously on the decision.
  • Past SS
  • Rolled past Boley
  • Cochrane dodged an inside pitch but it hit his bat
  • Dykes came in fast
  • Lazzeri tagged Foxx
  • Smash nearly threw Bishop off his feet
  • Simmons: fast fielding held long drive to a double
  • Ruth fooled the A's by laying down a bunt along 3B line. Dykes' hurried throw to 1B sailed over Foxx, but it struck the fence and bounced back fast; Ruth could not advance.
  • Lazzeri: leaping catch
  • Down 3B line, caroming off LF wall away from Simmons
  • Perfect one-hop throw to Cochrane who stood like a granite rock at the plate and dug the ball into Robertson's ribs.
  • Gehrig beat Foxx's throw to Quinn
  • Miller: diving catch Yanks kicked to all 3 umps claiming Miller trapped it
