...Harvard, Coolidge led off with a base-hit; Olmsted struck for a single over short-stop; Fessenden was first out on a sacrifice hit, sending Coolidge to third, who reached home on a passed ball. Winsor took first on nine balls. Olmsted was put out in trying to score on a hit to Walden by Shattuck. Nichols was third out, second to first...
...thrown out, by Winsor to Holden. This brilliant play saves a run. Tyng, for Harvard, goes out on a fly to right-field; Ernst reaches first base on a missed third-strike; Wright steps up to bat, and earns two bases on a long liner out to left field, bringing Ernst home, amidst great excitement. Winsor gets to second by an error of centre-field; and a base-hit will give two more runs; unfortunately Olmstead and Nunn both go out on fouls. Score, Yale 4, Harvard 1. There is a slight hope for the crimson...
...merely a question how badly the blues shall be beaten. Nunn is first out. Then Cohen and Holden hit singles; Coolidge gets his base on an error; Tyng and Ernst take a farewell of Lamb for one base-hit each and Wright comes to the bat.

Result: four more runs; making the total, Harvard 9, Yale...

Tyng, Wright, and Winsor made safe hits; wretched base running, however, easily disposed of our players and shut out all Harvard's hope of winning the game...

The weakest point seems to be the batting, only one base-hit being made in the whole game, and many of the men seeming to be surprised into striking. Although we much admired the catcher's cool playing Wednesday, we doubt whether he has the requisite strength for the position; could not the catcher of the Beacons be induced to play? We also...
