Shortstop was a weak position on both teams, Smith making six errors and Chase playing a slow and awkward game. Kendall at first was extremely reliable and Keene, though he made some bad errors, was clever in putting out men at second. Lovering played fairly well but missed several chances and interfered inexcusably with the runners. Wood played a steady game at second. The work of the outfield for both teams was very creditable...

...disability of Keene and Carr leaves Coolidge the leading candidate for shortstop. He is surer than last year and is throwing very well, but is not quick enough on attempts for double plays...
