Mark, you are absolutely correct. In fact, the Senators tied the game in the 8th inning when a similar occurrence happened - "I bounced a lucky hit over Lindstrom's head with the bases full" said Bucky Harris in his biography entitled "Playing The Game" that he wrote after the 1924 season. The baseball gods were certainly kind to the Senators in the 7th Game of the 1924 WS (but not so in the 7th Game of the 1925 WS).
