...Yale catcher played good baseball, but neither Gunther nor Peck was equal to Ames in the pitcher's box. Colgate's work at first base was the best baseball of the afternoon. The rest of the infield was only fairly good for a class team. The outfield was particularly wretched. Several muffs of long flies will help to account for Harvard's rather long list of runs...
...another and showed up very strongly. Ames proved very effective, allowing only four hits and giving no bases on balls. O'Malley gave him good support behind the bat, though his throwing to bases was not quite up to his usual standard. Whittemore and Griffin played steadily in the infield, and Selfridge and Paine made brilliant running catches...
...sixth Brown hit safely and stole second, but was thrown out in trying to steal third. The juniors made another run in their half of the inning, Whittemore reached first on errors, and got to third on a very wild pitch. He tried to score on Hoppin's infield hit and was safe as Bacon muffed the throw to the plate...
...inning by Morton, who made two errors. Buckman, who took Scannell's place in the eighth, had no chance to distinguish himself. The game was lost not on account of poor playing by any one or two men but by the wretched fielding of the whole nine. Of the infield Wrenn and Paine, each of whom played but three innings, were the only men who did not make an error. Highlands and Scannell both muffed easy flies and the latter also dropped the ball on a third strike, letting the batter reach first. Stevenson and Whittemore both...
...rather unusual record, however, of hitting seven men with pitched balls. Brown had plenty of work to do, but although he made few errors, his throwing to bases was poor, and his passed balls and missed third strikes were numerous. With the exception of McVey the infield was weak and in the outfield Chandler made two bad errors. Edmunds distinguished himself by a fine running catch of a long fly by Scott. The sophomores put up a much poorer game than on Friday and could neither bat nor field. Anderson had an off day and made some glaring errors. Perry...
