Notes & reviews

paper says betting odds on Indian pennant 3:1 or 7:2 Cal Hubbard, 300 lbs, first game with Cleveland as ump Indians hoped to see Joe D. debut but McCarthy said burned foot too sore, paper says 4 other Yankee OFs scrambling for other 2 OF spots
Chapman: running backhanded stab
Into RF bleachers (~360' away)
Ball got by Chapman
