...defeated Murray and Irwin's nine yesterday afternoon in a very loosely played game, by a score of 4 to 3. Scarcely anything can be said in the way of criticism. The whole game was lifeless, and devoid of interest, and whenever an opportunity was presented to make an error, it was accepted unhesitatingly. Highlands and Bates, on the contrary, pitched well for the greater part of the game, and between them struck out fourteen men. Mason caught Highlands, and for the first time this year, Trafford caught behind the bat. He did not distinguish himself yesterday, and it will...
Murray and Irwin's nine did not score until the fifth inning. With one man out, M. Murray struck out but by an error of Trafford's got to first, stole second, and by an error of Hovey reached third. The next man struck out and then Cowling got a pretty base-hit out by third base, and Murray scored. In the next inning they scored again, Donovan getting a base hit, stealing second, and scoring on an error by Hovey and a wild pitch. The third run was made very similarly, on two errors, a sacrifice and a throw...
...game with Dartmouth on Saturday Harvard showed decided improvement in her play. It was almost an errorless game, but the batting was very weak. Shurtleff pitched for Dartmouth and allowed but five hits to be made, though at critical points in the game he was unsteady. Dartmouth's six errors were evenly decided between Griffin and Brown and proved costly ones. It was in the sixth inning that Harvard made most of her runs. She was fortunate in bunching her hits, and aided by errors on Dartmouth's part she scored three times. Hovey went out to Tuxbury assisted...
...whole story of Saturday's Waterloo is told in Harvard's error column, and in the batting and fielding columns of Yale. Harvard had a magnificent nine against her, but that does not excuse the way in which she simply did not play ball. The Yale freshman team taught not only the Ninety-five nine, but taught all of us something about the game of base ball. Their base running, though, to be sure, they did not have a very strong battery to guard against, was worth watching and taking example from. But the feature which characterized the Yale playing...
Harvard scored the first run in the second inning. Dickinson got first on an error, stole second and came in on a very pretty hit by Corbett. The latter was thrown out in trying to steal second. Harvard scored again in the fifth on a hit by Mason, and an error by Brown at short. This ended the scoring for Harvard until the eighth, when Hallowell got his base on balls, and was brought in on a beautiful three bagger by Frothingham...
