Notes & reviews

Maranville's throw to 1st caromed off Williams into RF allowing Callahan to score and Meusel to reach 3rd
Blackburne ejected by HP umpire O'Day for arguing umpire was not in position behind the plate on the pitch on which Callahan flied out and the out should not have counted
20 minute rain delay
