...given wretched support. Only two of the visitors' runs were earned, the remainder coming from errors by Harvard. Aside from the actual blunders, the University team fielded slowly and seemed to lack the snap which has characterized the work of the last two weeks. Felton pitched good ball until the last inning when, with two out, a single, a three-bagger, and a wild pitch, gave Holy Cross two more runs...
...second run came in the third. R. Murray drew a base on balls, and was sacrificed to second by Cawley. J. Murray drew a base on balls. R. Murray went to third when J. Murray was retired at second, Wingate to Clark. Ostergren stole second, and when Frye threw to Clark to catch him napping, R. Murray scored. Two more were added in the next session. With two out, Dolan was hit by a pitched ball and went to third when Clark muffed Murphy's fly. Both scored on R. Murray's single...

Captain Wingate and Clark also hit well, each having two safe drives to his credit. In the field, the team played good ball, the two errors not proving disastrous in any way. Owing to Felton's masterly pitching, however, there was not much fielding to be done...
...University team scored all its runs in the first and fifth innings. Alsop, the first batter for Harvard singled to left and went to second when Higinbotham muffed the ball. He reached third on a passed ball by Lewis, scoring on Wingate's single between short-stop and third base. Wingate went to second on Clark's sacrifice and scored when Ayres's hard drive went through Brown's legs. Gannett flied to Brown. Hardwick then hit a home run over Higinbotham's head in left field scoring Ayres ahead of him. Tomes singled, and went to third when Gillette...
