Game was called promptly at 3. Princeton went to the bat, but failed to score in spite of a splendid three-base hit which Blossom drove to centre field. Harvard was more fortunate, and opened matters briskly enough by earning three runs on singles by Phillips and Willard, and doubles by Smith and Nichols...
...errors, a steal, and a wild pitch; while it repeated the operation in the sixth, by the aid of Bickham's home run. The fourth inning had proved disastrous for the orange and black, however, for Brownlee broke a finger, and was forced to yield his place behind the bat to Shaw, while King took Shaw's place at right field...
...game was called at 2.56 with Duffield at the bat. The first two men struck out. Bickham made a hit, stole second, and came in on Reynold's single. Allen, in trying to touch Bickham, dropped the ball, and Reynolds went to third, and came in on a passed ball. In the 5th inning Larkin made a hit, stole second, went to third on Brownlee's hit, and came home on a ???umble. Harvard had hard luck in having men left on bases. For the Fourth, after two were out, Henshaw and Edgerley hit safely, but were left on second...
...Brown men went first to the bat, and brought in two runs by a couple of bases on balls, a timely hit, a wild pitch, and a passed ball. Three hits, a base on balls, and an error gave them our more runs in the second inning. The seventh inning yielded one more inn, brought in by a hit, a steal, and two bases on a wild pitch. Harvard was blanked for six innings, and only twice got men to third. Rain stopped the game in the middle of the seventh, and made the score revert to the sixth inning...
...batting on both sides was weak, and Harvard won through the poor fielding of their opponents, not one of the eleven runs being earned. Bingham pitched finely, being hit for only three singles, and striking out twelve men. Henshaw was a tower of strength behind the bat, and coached the base runners superbly. Morgan played finely at second base, making a wonderful left-handed catch. McPherson ran his bases in fine style, stealing second and third every time he had a chance. For Yale, Watkinson pitched fairly, striking out sixteen men, but was terribly wild, ten men going to first...
