Notes & reviews

  • It rained a little in the first two innings
  • McInnis pulled down high throw and tagged Deal
  • Whiteman was hit in the ribs
  • Debut game for Turner Barber
  • Pick advanced to third on a short passed ball and when Thomas mishandled Schang's throw, Pick tried to score but was out at home to end game
