...University baseball team won easily from Bowdoin on Saturday by the score of 14 to 0. The hitting still showed the great improvement that has been made since the Williams game, and the fielding was on the whole satisfactory. In base-running alone did the nine seem to be weak. Carelessness on the part of the coaches and the base-runners cost directly at least two runs, and all the runners seemed to lack their usual speed...
Stillman pitched a steady game and had almost perfect control. Only two Bowdoin men reached second base, and of the four scattered hits made by Bowdoin, two would have been cut off by faster fielding.

Frantz made four of these hits,--two singles, a two-base hit and a home run, all of which brought in runs. Stillman, Murphy and Wendell made...

In the fourth inning Allen made a wild throw of Clarkson's grounder, and Clarkson went to third. Murphy got a base on balls, stole second, and both runners scored on Wendell's single. Reid...
