Notes & reviews

Over Foxx's raised glove
Splendid ovation when Ruth struck out
Threw over Hale
Grabowski injured his right hand on foul tip by Foxx. He left game suffering great pain.
Grazed his head
Over wall in dead CF; one of the longest HRs ever seen here
Hit on the foot
Slow roller
Lazzeri stole home cleanly on Earnshaw's long wind-up
Cochrane ran to the NYA bench
The ball hit 3B bag and bounded away from Koenig
Hit bleacher wall and took a long bound away from Combs
Into the upper deck in LF
Haas: amazing 1-handed running catch robbed Combs
Cochrane ran to the stands
