Notes & reviews

Ruth left game with a strained back
Running catch
Leaping 1-hand catch
Durst ran up the embankment in front of RF bleachers for a remarkable catch. Simmons had reached 2B and was doubled up.
Durst ran to the edge of the grandstand in RF and made a fine catch.
Slow roller; Lary was playing deep
Close to RCF bleachers
Lary's throw to Lazzeri at 2B was late
Shoestring catch
