Princeton also scored one run on a bad error by shortstop, who, getting his finger knocked off, and stopping to pick it up before throwing, overthrew, and the man came around. In the seventh inning the umpire earned three curses on strikes, balls and a close decision at second. In the twenty-ninth inning Princeton again tallied, the datter hitting the ball clean into the third-base's stomach, and, the Yales not having the presence of mind to call lost ball...
