...Coolidge poled out a long sacrifice fly. O'Marra, a lefty, lasted eight innings, when he was replaced by Whittaker, who is soon to join professional ranks. The newcomer worked well until the eleventh, when with his team in a one-run lead and with two of the University batsmen safely disposed of, he let Percy triple and gave passes to the next four men who came to the plate. That ended the game and ended Tuft's claims on the intercollegiate title...
...game series on Soldiers Field this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Coach Mitchell will probably select Mahan to do the slab work for the home team, as the latter was exceedingly effective against the Quakers in the first game, allowing only four scattered hits and whiffing eleven batsmen. Spielman, the opposing team's premier twirler, will doubtless go in the box for the visitors.

Saturday's victory was chiefly due to the air-tight pitching of Mahan, coupled with the errorless support and opportune hitting of his team-mates. The University twirler was decidedly stingy with his hits, allowing but six well-scattered ones and whiffing nine of the opposing batsmen.

Hoyt's contribution, as it was with only one man down, would undoubtedly have gone for a clean bingle had not Mahan...
...second baseball team was defeated by the Yale seconds 3 to 1, on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. Watrous pitched well for Yale, allowing only seven scattered hits, and striking out 11 batsmen. He practically won the game in the fifth inning by slamming a home-run to left field. In the same inning Patten had scored on a long fly to left field which was muffed. Yale's third run came in the ninth, when Patten scored on a hit, an error, and a single by Bierwirth...
Garfield has proved the most consistent pitcher and has been cool and steady in facing opposing batsmen. Walsh and Watrous are disposed to be erratic,--being effective at times and treated harshly by hostile batters at others. Underwood has pitched little...
