Another ten inning game was played on Holmes field yesterday afternoon between the freshmen and the Fall River High School team. Ninety-two played without snap, and the baserunning as usual was poor. The batting was weak except in the tenth inning when Cummin and Wrenn made clean hits, thereby bringing in the winning runs. Spalding pitched a good game, but his support from Hollis was, at times, very loose. Wrenn played a beautiful game at second base with the exception of his inexcusable muffs of thrown balls. Carpenter played faultlessly at first, and Cummin made good catches in left...
...Yale freshmen made fewer errors than Harvard, but the hitting was weaker. Jones pitched a steady game up to the tenth inning when he gave two men bases on balls. His infield support, however, in that inning was not good, the second baseman making two costly errors...
...cool at critical points. The nine was unfortunate at the first in losing the regular catcher, who broke a finger. Bell filled his place creditably, but his arm was in such a condition that the Yale men stole bases with impanity. Hawley pitched exceedingly well. In the ninth inning he saved the game by striking out two men in succession with a man on third base, and only one run needed by Yale...
...Wood got his base on third baseman's error, stole second and third, and came home on Evans' long fly to centre. Harvard shut Yale out on a pretty double play by Wrenn and Carpenter. Hale made a two base hit for Harvard in the second inning, and scored on Cummin's pretty single to right field. Ivison scored for Yale on a base hit, and a passed ball by Hale who had a finger broken. Harvard was blanked in the third. She went to pieces with Yale at the bat, and four men scored though only...
...singles, a sacrifice, and Evans' fumble in centre field. Harvard, in her half, scored two runs. The first four men at the bat made safe hits, and Howland and McKean both scored, one of the runs being earned. Dean scored for Harvard in the third inning, on a base on balls, a steal, and two sacrifices. He scored again in the fifth, on another base on bal's, a sacrifice and a wild pitch. Williams got her second run in the fifth inning when two hits a base on balls, and Cummings' fumble allowed Wilson to reach the plate...
