Harvard defeated Princeton last Saturday, scoring four runs through Hillebrand's wildness and Reid's batting. The pitching on both sides was remarkable, each pitcher allowing but three scattered hits. Stillman gave his first and only base on balls to Kafer in the ninth inning, when he also hit Meier. Hillebrand gave five bases, three of which resulted in runs. Each side had a man on base in six innings, but only three times in the whole game was there more than one. Only three Princeton men reached second base, and but one of these got to third. Except...
Both sides played an excellent game in the field, but neither could do anything at the bat. Harvard's base-running was excellent, especially in the first inning, when Kendall stole home on Princeton's attempt to catch Reid at second. Princeton also ran bases well, though two men were caught trying to steal second. The feature of the game was Reid's allround play. His home run brought in three others in the eighth inning, and his single made it possible for Kendall to score in the first. He gave Stillman perfect support, threw well to second...
Princeton's nearest approach to scoring was in the first inning, when with one out, Kafer singled, stole second, and went to third on Pearson's out. Meier ended the inning by striking out. In the second inning Coolidge's error and Burke's stolen base gave Princeton a man on second with only one out, but Green struck out and Hutchinson was retired at first. Princeton did not reach second again until the ninth inning, when Stillman hit Steinwender and gave Meier a base on balls. There were two outs, however, and when Wendell caught Hillebrand...
After Loughlin had struck out in the first inning Kendall was hit by a pitched ball and went to third on Reid's single to right field. On the first ball pitched Reid started to steal second and while Steinwender tried to run him down on the base line, Kernan stole home. Reid and Fincke were put out on a fast double play by Meier, Steinwender and Pearson. In the sixth inning Loughlin reached first on Steinwender's error and second on Kendall's sacrifice, but Reid and Fincke went out on easy chances. With two out in the seventh...
...poorly played game. The Freshmen were weak both in the field and at the bat. Clarkson won the game by striking out nineteen men and allowing but one hit. Marean had four passed balls and threw poorly to second, but made two hits. Lovering's showing at first base was very good, although he has had no practice in the position; he accepted seven chances without an error. The feature of the game, besides Clarkson's pitching, was the brilliant throwing of Matthews, shortstop for Andover. The score by innings: Innings...
