...close game at Brockton, Saturday afternoon, the cricket team was defeated by Brockton C. C. by the score of 49 to 44. Harvard went to bat first on an extremely soft wicket, and, although Lowry and Murray both made creditable stands, scored only 44 runs. When Brockton came to bat the condition of the ground had improved, but the wickets continued to fall at short intervals. With eight wickets down for but 16 runs, Brockton netted 33 points on the next two stands. Harvard. Drinkwater, l.h.w. Orton, 2 Fairweather, b. Orton, 0 MacNeill, b. Orton, 1 Murray, c. & b. Orton...

...pitching to win the game for them, with the result that they carelessly miss easy chances when the ball is hit. On Saturday Clarkson was the only man on the nine who played a careful, snappy game. He struck out twelve men, and led the team at the bat, making three hits. None of the runs made by the Groton nine were earned, and several of their hits would not have been safe had the Freshmen made even a pretence of fielding sharply. The team is poor at batting, fielding, and especially at base-running, so that great improvement will...

Loughlin led at the bat with three singles and a triple out of four times at bat. Fincke and Kendall also hit well. In the field, Wendell played the best game, having four put-outs, two on difficult chances. At shortstop, George showed the effect of lack of practice and inexperience in the position. Reid's throwing to second was accurate, but slow...

Since returning from the southern trip the Yale baseball team has played three games, defeating Holy Cross by 4 to 3 Amherst by 15 to 6 and Wesleyan by 2 to 0. Yale's batting was weak in all three games, and the fielding indifferent, except in the Wesleyan game, which Yale played without an error. The infield does not play well together, and has trouble in handling pop flies and bunt hits. Sharpe at first is steadily improving, and Quinby makes few misplays at second, but does not cover enough ground. Camp and Brown, at short and third, play...

When Harvard went to bat the first few wickets fell in quick succession and it became Harvard's policy to play for a draw, which was secured with two wickets to spare. MacNeill batted in best shape for Harvard, running up double-figures. Harvard. A. Drinkwater, b. Hird, 4 J. H. A. L. Fairweather, l.b.w. Hird, 0 MacNeill, run out, 11 H. H. Lowry, c. Stirks, b. Hird, 0 O. Paul, b. Mosley, 8 W. N. Taylor l.b.w. Hird, 6 V. C. Mather, b. Mosley, 2 R. C. Brown, c. Stirks, b. Mosley, 6 C. H. Bradley...
