Notes & reviews

Hit first pitch into RF stands
Bad throw to Lyons at 1B
Great 1-hand grab back of 2B, but Hunnefield beat throw to 1B
Past Gehrig
Meusel went far back and made 1-hand catch, robbing Shires of possible triple.
Slow bounder
Dazzling stop and throw
Attempted double steal
Terrific drive into RF bleachers
It began to drizzle and the fans in the uncovered seats moved back into the stands.
Slow roller
