Notes & reviews

Over the leaping Kingman
Vuckovich stepped over the plate as Blackwell threw to 2B. Scott stole safely but was called out due to batter's interference. $Cardinals manager Boyer ejected by HP umpire Froemming for arguing Vuckovich had not interfered on steal.
Over RCF fence to the left of the 386' mark
Over LF fence into Cubs bullpen
Great play by Biittner and Caudill
