Cornell had one novel play. When the ball was to be punted, the quarterback stood about twenty feet from the line. The centre rush instead of bouncing the ball, threw it back into the quarterback's hands, and the latter either punted himself or passed the ball to the fullback. The play was quite successful, for although the Harvard forwards broke through quickly, only one or two kicks were blocked...
...seventh was disastrous for Harvard. McVey fielded Greenway's grounder well, but Rustin hit a liner between Paine and Rand which got by both the fielders and resulted in a home run. Keator's hit was deflected by Highlands to Wrenn, and he threw out the runner at first, but the umpire did not allow it. Redington reached first on McVey's error, and Carter made a single, filling the bases. Stephenson's hit bounded over Winslow's head, and two runs were added to Yale's score. Speer's long hit got lost in the crowd in centre field...
...Yale, Stephenson led off with a two base hit, but the next three men could not advance him. Harvard's first man Stevenson hit a single to left field. A moment later Greenway threw to first to catch him off the base. The throw was poor, and the ball rolled to right field. Stevenson took second, and kept on to third as Keator let the ball get away from him. Wrenn was given a base on balls and as the last one was a wild pitch, Stevenson crossed the plate. Wrenn also scored on Winslow's three-bagger which Speer...
...Wrenn got to first on balls. Stevenson struck out, but Highlands drove out a long fly to Gorman, on which Burgess took third. On the next ball pitched Wrenn started for second, and Reuning by a quick throw caught Burgess off third. He was being run down, when Blakely threw high over Reunig's head, and the ball rolled to the players' bench, while two more Harvard men crossed the plate. This rattled Schoenhut, and he sent Winslow and Dean to first on balls. Winslow stole second and third cleverly, but Goeckel made a neat play of Rand...
...third Avil struck out, but Schoenhut got first on balls. Burgess dropped Goeckel's hard drive, and second and third were filled with one out. Reunig hit hard to Wrenn, who played carefully and kept Schoenhut on third while he threw his man out at first. Gray relieved all anxiety by flying out to Rand...
