...game opened with the visitors in the field. Thayer showed excellent judgment in waiting for good balls, but failing to get them he took first on called balls. He successfully stole second and went to third on Carter's wild throw. His dives into second and third were marvellous and amusing. Tyng then commenced his series of hard hits by a beauty to the left, on which Thayer scored. Ernst hit safe to right, and Tyng scored. Two runs to begin with, which were loudly cheered. To Yale the first three innings yielded no returns, no man reaching first base...
...terrible errors, executed by Leeds and others, the Lowells were enabled to score six runs and tie the game.

Wright led off with a base hit in the third, but was doubled up on Dow's foul tip to Carl, and the latter's good throw to Cogswell. Tyng, after two men were out, gave Mincher his base on strikes. Say sent him to second by a high fly to Dow, who, being unable to see the ball on account of the sun, allowed it to drop at his feet. Dailey then retired on a well-caught...
...just pride in its advantages, and mentions them frequently in its journal, the malignant rival whose "disgusting jealousy" takes the form of "puerile gush" well deserves to be pelted with abuse, and then informed that "a man will not progress rapidly on a journey if he stops to throw stones at every cur that barks...
