...freshman team played Amherst Ninety-two at Amherst Saturday and was overwhelmingly defeated. The whole freshman team seemed demoralized. In the first part of the game Wood was pounded unmercifully, and numerous errors on the part of almost every Harvard fielder gave Amherst a tremendous lead.

In nearly every game so far there has been one disastrous inning when the 'varsity seem to lose control of themselves and the opposing team makes anywhere from three to seven rurs. The necessity of more care at such times is apparent...
