Notes & reviews

Hornsby: fine bare-handed stop
Alexander suffered an attack of indigestion; Mgr Southworth and Coach Street ran out to accompany him to the dugout. Alexander received first aid and recovered enough to return.
Bottomley: scooped low throw out of the dirt
Too hot for Gelbert whose hurried throw was low
Stephenson: good running catch
High throw to Root
Past McMillan
Delker: good stop
Stephenson: good running catch
Wilson ejected by HP umpire Rigler for arguing strike 2
Past Frisch
