...first base, Robeson has shown the best form. He is very weak on ground balls, however, and often lets them slip by him. His batting is fair. Kernan, who has been appointed temporary captain, is covering second base. He is the hardest worker on the team and seems to put life into the other men. His batting is fairly sure and his fielding steady. Sanger at third base uses good judgment in waiting for balls and his hitting is fair. His fielding is very erratic. Greenough who is trying for shortstop does not put enough life into his playing...
Individually the most encouraging work of the trip was done by Kernan. His batting was excellent, in fact the best of the whole team, although hither-to he has been one of the weakest hitters on the squad. His fielding improved during the trip, but he showed ignorance of the finer points of his position. Neither Stillman nor Clarkson were up to their usual standard either in the box or at bat, and their wildness and tendency to let down at times were very costly. Wendell did not come up to Frantz's standard at first base, although his hitting...
...Kernan batted excellently, getting three hits out of four times at bat, but fielded badly, having three costly passed balls. Daly was tried at second with only fair success. Wendell and Coolidge both made costly errors, and as a whole the infield work was disorganized. Rockwell was very weak at the bat, striking out three times, and Carr was almost as unsatisfactory. The batting of Clarkson, Stillman and Coolidge was the only good feature of Harvard's play...
Among the pitchers W. Clarkson '03 has good speed and curves but poor control owing to a bad trick of side-wheeling. In batting he settles and slugs too hard. A. Stillman '03 has developed fair speed and moderately good control; his arm is getting into shape and he is working hard and conscientiously. He bats fairly well, but has a tendency to over step. H. S. Hutchinson '04 is improving in speed and control. His batting is weak. F. H. Schoenfuss '04 is as yet awkward, being unaccustomed to the new motion. He does not start the ball high...
...outfield B. Wendell '02 is fielding fairly well, but is an inaccurate thrower. His batting is fair but he does not pick the balls. W. B. Wood '02 is slow and fights the ball. He is a poor hitter. H. L. Movius '02 is an awkward fielder and thrower but a fair hitter. R. Christenson '02 is careless in his work, but has a good throw. He is a poor hitter. L. P. Pieper '03 does not get down on ground balls and covers very little territory. He is a weak thrower, and at the bat tries...
