...University crew rowed vigorously, but at times showed a tendency to shorten the stroke. Aided by the tide, however, the boat spaced well against a strong head wind. The Freshman boat ran smoothly until the last half mile, when Mulligan seemed to lose control of his oar. Severance, at 5, caught a crab about three-quarters of a mile from the finish, and Rackemann, at 3, jumped his slide in the spurt. A slight change was made in the make-up of the Freshman eight. Mulligan returned to number 4, from which position he was yesterday changed...
Castle and Hay were equally effective, the former striking out five men and the latter six. Castle did not have as good control as in the Brown game, and gave four men their bases on balls. He fielded his position well, however, and ran four men out at first. Currier was fast and wide awake, held Castle well, and made one accurate throw to second in the first inning, catching Yerkes by several feet. The infield without exception played an errorless game. Simons, besides accepting his only chance, made a clean single, sending McCall to third, from where he scored...
...until the end of the week. His position was filled yesterday by Reece, who stroked the 1909 crew in the class races on May 18. The crew rowed down to Harvard bridge and back, following Reece well. During the last few days the men have gained better control of their slides and a smoother recovery...
...very frequently misjudge foul flies. Kelly's work, however, during the past week has been encouraging and he will catch today in place of Moss. Hartford should prove effective as he has had valuable experience against the smaller colleges. He is apt to weaken, however, and to lose control of the ball. He bats well for a pitcher. At the beginning of the season the work of the first basemen was very poor. Harding, by perseverance and steadiness has developed into one of the best Freshman first baseman in years. He is still rather awkward but he handles ground balls...
...Alphas won by their superior and more timely batting, securing 12 hits, of which one was a home run. Brennan, who pitched for the Alphas, had better control than Smith, the Incognitos' pitcher, striking out ten men and allowing only seven scattered hits. There were several doubtful decisions by the umpires, which gave the Alphas more runs than they really earned, but as they clearly outclassed their opponents, it did not affect the result of the game...
