Harvard went first to the bat and scored at once on Gallivan's hit for three bases to right field, and Ames' muff of Dana's throw on an attempt to cut him off at the plate. The visitors made their only runs in their first inning, when they should have been blanked. Wagenhurst struck out. Durell hit a long fly to centre which Boyden misjudged and dropped. Henshaw had two passed balls in succession, the only ones of the game, giving Durell third. Dana struck out. With two men out and Durell on third, Hutchinson knocked to short, which...
After the disastrous first inning, Harvard played a game which, if continued, will bring the championship to Cambridge. The entire nine batted hard, few men striking out. Gallivan made his first error in a championship game, an excusable muff of Bates' throw in attempting to put King out at second. Willard led his side at the bat. For Princeton, King and Dana did good work. The score...
Longwood won the toss and decided to go to the bat, Mansfield and Bixby going in to face the bowling of Ellis and Brown. The batting of Longwood was very steady, but at no time brilliant. The chief scores were those of G. Wright, 20, and of Hubbard, 21, two very creditable performances, as the wicket was by no means a run getting one, and the bowling of Harvard was well on. The fielding of Harvard was fairly good, but lacked in throwing in to the wicket. The last wicket of the visiting XI fell...
Harvard won the toss and decided to go to the bat. The batting of the team as a whole was very steady. Brown got the top score, 44, by hard, clean hitting. Sullivan also played well for his 14. The bowling of Mystic was well on the wicket, that of O'Hair especially so. The fielding of the home XI was also good...
...eighth, it stood 8 to 7 in favor of Yale. In the first of the ninth Corning tied the score again, making a run on an error by Hedges, and a base hit by Cummings. Yale then came to the bat for the last time, feeling very confident of victory. McClintock took his base on balls, stole second, took third on player's choice, came home on Parker's base hit, and the game was lost. Crosby played very well for Harvard: Huntington did the best word for Yale. It is useless to deny that the Yale team completely outplayed...
