COMMENTS / CONDITION: HE'S LOOKING IN THE WRONG PLACE---CHICAGO: Centerfielder Don Landrum (20), Chicago Cubs, appears to have his head buried in greensward of the outfield as he takes a header trying to field a double hit today in Chicago by the Los Angeles Dodgers' catcher. The play came in the second inning---and the ball bounces away---in this view made as seen from the bleachers.
