Notes & reviews

P.Waner: fine running catch
Hot smash
Slow bounder
Frisch: fine stop
Against the front of RF stand; 'dented the concrete in front of the extension'.
Douthit: caught on a hard run
Terrific liner
Knocked aside by Grantham; ball rolled to the grass. He chased it and trapped Frisch rounding 1B.
325: 8
Into the lower tier of RF stand
