...proved to be a little worse than ordinary osseous substance. The six sorrowing sahibs engaged last winter in a battle of the bank books for the minor league stars. The players purchased: Fielder O'Connell and Pitcher Bentley by the Giants for a total of $140,000, Shortstop Sand for $40,000 by the Phillies, Pitcher Kunz for $30,000 by the Pirates, Baseman Hale by the Athletics for $75,000, Baseman Lutzke and Catcher Myatt for $80,000 by Cleveland, and Baseman Kamm for $125,000 by the White Sox. The only one of these costly experiments...
...preparation for today's contest, the Freshmen met an all-star dormitory team yesterday, and had little difficulty in defeating them in a four inning game by the score of 4 to 0. McGlone left his regular position at shortstop to pitch for the Freshmen, and he held his opponents to a few scattered hits. The Crimson faces an entirely different proposition, however, when it comes up against the Dean Academy team, which has already demonstrated what it can do by defeating the Seconds on Monday by the safe margin of 12 to 5. It also overcame the strong Choate...
Larrabee, who has been suffering from a slight injury on his finger, has practically recovered, and although he may not start the contest, he will undoubtedly be back in his position behind the bat before the end of the game. Who will start at shortstop is also in doubt, but Hill occupied that position during practice yesterday and also through the game with the University of Maine, and is therefore favored over Jenkins...
...teams were more evenly matched than the score indicates, but the seconds failed to make use of their opportunities, and time and again were caught off bases. Both teams suffered minor injuries during the game. In the second inning a hard-hit ball bounced poorly for Hanson, the Dean shortstop, and, striking him squarely in the face, broke his nose. He was able to play through the game, however. Fitton, at third for the Crimson, was also hit in the face and had to leave the field, while Hoffman received a slight injury on the kneecap from a foul...
...Davidson has developeed an exceptionally fast infield composed of R. H. Field at the initial sack, a former Exeter player; J. E. Knowlton, captain of last year's Middlesex team of which H. E. Slayton, the third-sacker, was a member; and J. C. McGlone, for three years a shortstop at Exeter...
