Notes & reviews

Fred Frankhouse purposely dropped the bunt; both Billy Jurges and Phil Cavarretta were at 2B so Frankhouse threw to 1B to retire Curt Davis; Buddy Hassett saw Jurges starting for 3B and threw to Frankhouse who was closest to 3B bag; Jurges started back to 2B and Cavarretta back to 1B; Frankhouse threw wildly to 1B; Jurges tried to score after the error
Babe Phelps ejected by HP umpire Tiny Parker
