...Soule took third. Hallowell stole second. Hovey sacrificed, bringing Soule in and advancing Hallowell to third. Trafford knocked a grounder to Parks, who fumbled it, and thus let Hallowell come home. In trying to steal second Trafford was thrown out, and Frothingham went out on a grounder to the infield...
...game yesterday was a complete contrast to that of Saturday. Howe's pitching was remarkably wild, the Bostons taking first base on balls nine times. His throwing to bases was also poor. In the infield Hovey made three errors and Dean one. The outfield played well except for one badly misjudged fly by Dickinson. Hallowell and Frothingham both made beautiful catches, each assisting in a timely double play. Cook at third made a fine catch of a ball thrown high over his head. He also made the only clean hit that Harvard got, and his sacrifice in the fifth inning...

Frothingham caught it prettily and made a fine throw to first, retiring Sullivan before he could get back. For Harvard Dean and Hallowell flied out, and Hovey...

Besides, there was a snow bank behind first base, into which the ball was knocked several times. Nevertheless the first and second nines played a seven innings game, and the second nine won. The score was nine to eight. The work of the team was sometimes quick, but the men very naturally showed that they were new to outdoor work, and several errors were...
