Notes & reviews

High bounder
Attempted double steal; assuming POCS since text credited Ferrell with assist.
1-handed catch in deep CF
Dykes knocked down drive over 3B
Roller hit 1B bag
Great running catch
Completely over the top of LF bleachers. It was the longest hit this season made in Shibe Park.
Texas Leaguer
