...Kemble in the seventh inning, which looked much like an error, both teams played errorless ball. Only nine hits were secured by both teams, but four of these were good for extra bases. Hartford and Brennan started the game as the opposing pitchers, but were soon replaced by second string men. They were both erratic and did not attempt to use speed. The pitchers did not partike in the batting...
...meantime we must make the most of our growing opportunities. We must not neglect a single chance to demonstrate that athletics can and must exist in every possible form. Today the second string baseball material is not doing its share. The University second baseball team, now that the Leiter Cup Series has been crowded out, affords the only opportunity, outside of a few interclass games, for the man of average ability to play the "national game."

The Juniors and Freshmen were tied for third place at 161. Each man shot at 50 birds, in strings of 25; and Brooks and Pearson were high men, with 41 apiece...

Several batteries were tried from the second string men, and worked fairly successfully, although there was considerable wildness at times, and seven bases on balls were given in all. Only the fielding candidates took part in the batting, which was by far the most creditable performance of the day. Of last year's team, Briggs, Simons, and Dana...
...afternoon, when a sort of practice game was held. Two teams in which changes were made from time to time were pitted against each other, although the batteries did not change with the teams. In the course of the practice several batteries were tried, but none of the first string pitchers were used. It was the first opportunity for outdoor batting and pitching, and several of the batters showed up to good advantage against the second string pitchers...
