Notes & reviews

Opening Day at Braves Field. Ceremonial first pitch was thrown out by Massachusetts Governor Calvin Coolidge (it was too cold for other opening day ceremonies such as teams proceeding to center field for the raising of the flag)
Hit and run.
O'Neil was accidentally struck in the head by Fletcher's bat earlier in the inning and left game here
