Second Game was unexciting until the sixth inning, which turned into the sort of thing that makes baseball conversation for years to come. Washington led 1-to-0 by reason of "Goose" Goslin's terrific clout into the upper grandstand tier in the third. Except for that, Pitcher Hal Schumacher, 22-year-old graduate of St. Lawrence University, had allowed only one hit in five innings. The Giants had knocked only two singles from Washington's veteran righthander, "General" Crowder. Then the Senators went to bat in the sixth. They did everything toward scoring more runs-except...
...doubt the varsity stumbling block. On Wednesday the Harvard team handed the Bears a 5 to 2 defeat, and that without much effort. Saturday saw Charles Devens, as one-man ball team, aided by other members of the squad, notably Wood and his long distance home run clout, administer Columbia a fitting revenge for an early season upset, 8 to 3. But yesterday the genius of Devens was absent from the pitchers box, and the infield which usually supports him so well collapsed behind the adequate pitching of Taylor. Devens played in centre field and hit the only double...

The frame was but a few minutes older when Wood duplicated Ticknor's three-base clout, and later scored on a sacrifice fly by Lupien. In the following inning Ticknor again connected with Sonheim's delivery for three bases, sending two men across the slab with scores, and later crossed the plate himself for Harvard's sixth...
Treating the weekend crowd to an exhibition of air-tight baseball, the Crimson nine made it two in a row this year over a powerful Pennsylvania aggregation when it duplicated its 3-1 victory of last month. Captain McGrath's triple and Wood's circuit clout provided the necessary punch to edge the solitary tally that the Quakers were able to eke out against the crafty delivery of the red-haired Harvard moundsman, MacHale...
Harvard started the scoring in the first inning, McCaffrey counting for the first score on DesRoches's long three-base clout to right field, being soon followed by DesRoches himself, who scored on a wild pitch. The veteran guardian of the hot corner found himself a bit yesterday afternoon, poling out three hits out of five times up. McCaffrey also showed up much better at the bat than he has previously, collecting three safe hits out of three chances...
