...finish there were but a few feet of open water between the two boats. Shortly before the finish the first crew, which had been rowing a steady stroke of 30, took a spurt and at the finish was rowing 36. The time was encouraging, even under almost perfect weather conditions...
...both teams reduced the base-running and the scoring to a minimum. Both Lynch and Clarkson pitched with remarkable effectiveness, the latter allowing the Brown team but three hits, striking out nine men, and giving no bases on balls.
