Kernan's work behind the bat shows promise. He showed, however, a lack of steadiness, especially in holding third strikes. Frantz covered first base satisfactorily, and Coolidge fielded his position remarkably well. Clark's one assist was on a bunt, which he handled cleanly and quickly.

Higgs was slow in backing up second, and allowed a runner to take third on a high throw by Kernan...
