Harvard had no trouble in defeating Williams on Saturday at Williamstown. The game was rather a poor exhibition of ball playing, for the home nine had changed the positions of several of their men and errors were numerous in consequence. Corey, their substitute pitcher, did as well as could be expected considering the support that he received. For Harvard, Paine pitched steadily for seven innings, when Highlands took his place. Buckman caught him well and his throwing to bases was very accurate. Wrenn and Whittemore both made good stops and Stevenson took everything that came his way without an error...
...base on balls. They were, however, unable to bat effectively and as a general rule could not succeed in getting the ball past the infield or in keeping it on the ground. For the sophomores Fox and Stevens played the best games. The former accepted thirteen chances without an error. Stevens made three errors, one of which was excusable as it was not his ball, but he otherwise fielded excellently, covering a great deal of ground and making some good stops. The batting of the whole team was rather poor. Garrison as usual was especially weak and Beale...
...second, Stevens hit safely and went to second on a wild pitch, and to third on an error. Anderson got his base on balls and stole second. A passed ball then let Stevens home and Anderson to third. The latter scored on Gregory's hit. This was all the scoring done this inning. Poor base-running lost the freshmen a chance to score. In the third inning two bases on balls and erratic fielding on Hall's part brought in one more run for '97. The freshmen made both their runs in this inning. With one man out, Cozzens reached...
...Harvard's nine hits four were scratch, and ones which should have been fielded. Williams made but five, and two of these should have been easy outs. In all eighteen men struck out. Harvard made nine of her ten runs in the fourth and seventh innings, owing to errors and five timely hits. In the field Harvard made but two errors. Stevenson muffed a low ball, allowing Goodrich to reach first, and in the fifth inning Whittemore's wild throw of Fitch's hit allowed Williams to make her first run. Wrenn fielded his position well, accepting six chances without...
...this inning, with two men out, Harvard made four runs. Whittemore hit safely and went to third on Hayes's single. The latter stole second. Scannell hit to short, who fumbled. Whittemore scored and Hayes reached third. Wrenn reached first on an error by Bradley, and Hayes scored. Rand's single then brought in two more runs...
