...steady game and was unusually effective with men on bases, especially in the seventh inning when he struck out two men in succession with the bases full. Story played the best all-round game, making three difficult foul catches and getting his base twice on skillful bunts.

...battery is now above the average of Freshman teams. The infield is still weak, but during the last few days the men have shown a little more accuracy and speed. Story at third base and Baldwin at first are both reliable men, but Lancy and Jackson at shortstop and second base are not covering enough ground. The outfield is slightly improved by the addition of Minton, who has been out of the game for some time. With the exception of Clark, Clarkson, Baldwin and Minton the men are weak at the bat, but as much time has now been given...

Daly and Lancy were tried for a few innings at second base and shortstop, but neither of them did very well...

Coburn and Milne form an excellent battery, although Coburn is still a little unsteady. Lovering at first covers a great deal of ground, but his throwing is weak; Keene at second has the same fault. Putnam and Clay at shortstop and third base are both playing very well, and seem to be doing the best work of the team. The outfielders, Quincy and Stuart, are both fairly good men, but their work so far has been slow. The other outfield position is unfilled...
