...loss of the game by the Seniors was due partly to the weak pitching of Alexander in the fourth inning, and partly to the consistently good playing of the Freshmen throughout the game. Their hits were opportune and well-placed, their fielding was fast and accurate, and they showed good judgment in running bases. Brennan pitched creditably and Dexter, at third base, played his usual strong game. Giles's catch of a difficult fly to left field in the seventh inning was a feature of the game...
...game was slow and for the most part uninteresting. Amherst was weak in the box, and both teams played an erratic fielding game, a fact perhaps accounted for to some extent by the slippery condition of the field. Coburn struck out twelve men, gave no bases on balls and allowed only four scatered hits. Orrell struck out five men, hit six, gave five bases on balls and allowed six hits. Clarkson's catch of Storke's center-field fly in the fourth inning was one of the features of the game...
Harvard won through opportune hitting, though the batting was generally weak. The fielding, however, was swift and accurate. Brennan was the steadier of the two pitchers, struck out nine men, and allowed no bases on balls. Pratt struck out only six men, gave two bases on balls, and hit one man. Dexter and Evans both played their positions well, and Foster and Giles in the outfield each fielded their two chances cleanly. The Yale team was weak in fielding and threw to bases poorly...
...balls. On the other hand, Cox allowed seven hits, not more than two of which, however, were in the same inning, gave four bases on balls, and hit three men. In the field both teams, particularly Bowdoin, seemed listless, and at bat the work of both was pitifully weak. The University team was utterly unable to bunch the few hits it managed to make, and in the six innings in which more than three men came to bat, one or more men was left on bases every time the team was retired...
...Prentice '05 and J. M. Morse '07. As both men rely on coming up to the net to win most of their points the playing should be fast. Prentice is the more experienced player, passes well, and is steady. Morse plays a fast, aggressive game but is weak in the back court...
