...team advanced the greater number of men to the bases. In the fourth, however, Harvard scored one run, added two more in the sixth, and one in the eighth, while Pennsylvania reached third base but once during the entire game. With two out Hare made a three-bagger, the longest hit of the game, in the sixth inning, but the fast fielding of the University team held him at third, an Adams sent an easy ball to the pitcher.
