...actively in the game when Princeton was defeated 10 0. Last year he had a like position, and this season he played half back again. His work was marvelously fine throughout the fall. He has been on the nine also at Yale for two springs, playing in both the infield and outfield...
...spring. The men all seem to have some idea of the game but play carelessly. For catcher, Bell, '92, is the only candidate. For pitcher, there are Wiggin, '92, Young, '94, Williams, '94. and Howe, '93, who pitched successfully against the Yale freshmen last spring. The candidates for the infield are, first base, Nicola, '92, Coburn, '94, Gilman, '94; second, Lowell, '92; for third there are three candidates, Austrian, '91, who played on his class team, Cook, '92, and Kent, '94; short stop, Homans and Soule, '93; outfield, Flynn, '94, and Beals, '94. The candidates will practice, hereafter, at three...
Harvard outplayed Yale at nearly every point, far out-batting and outfielding her. Stagg was in the box and was hit hard, only five Harvard men striking out. His support behind the bat was admirable, but in the infield and outfield many inexcusable errors were made. Harvard, on the other hand, fielded well and batted in fine form. Yale ran bases with more spirit than Harvard, and another weak point of the latter was her coaching, which was poor, especially when a runner was on third. Downer, although deserving much praise for his steadiness in the latter part...

McMillan, the Princeton right-fielder, accepted seven chances, two very difficult, without an error. With the exception of this, all the play was in the infield. A wild pitch by Stagg let in the winning run. The game on the whole was the finest ever seen at Princeton. Princeton made the only run of the game in the 8th inning...
Harvard was first at the bat and was shut out, although Linn got around to third on a hit, a steal and a sacrifice. Mahoney made a two base hit for Holy Cross, but got no farther than the second bag. In the second inning the Holy Cross infield went to pieces. Alward got his base on third's error, stole second and came in on sacrifices. Short-stop fumbled Mason's grounder and the latter stole second, took third on Upton's sacrifice, and came in on a wild pitch. Upton got a life on third's error...
