...third inning of the nightcap, storms swept the field and the Crimson was building an early lead. Elliott Rivera singled to right, Bauer doubled to left, and Farrell, who went four-for-seven on the day, came through with the RBIs once again. The senior first baseman belted a double to center that scored both runners. Farrell moved to third when Martelli flew out, then scored on a Baldocchi-passed ball to lift the batmen to a 3-0 advantage. Harvard, 5-3 at Annapolis, Md. Harvard 200 030 0--5 6 1 Navy...

Weller's grounder to short brought Maspons home, and Harvard trailed by only...
