With the Brown series even, and the Princeton series won, the team took a big slump on June 7, and lost to Boston College by a score of 3 to 1. Coach Mitchell's absence, Reed's two costly errors, and an almost complete loss of prowess at the bat were responsible, for the team played poorly, Reed's bungles figured prominently in each Boston College score, and although he was aided greatly by fast fielding, pitcher Gill let the University down with three hits. Rain cancelled the second Penn. game, but baseball followers were given a great treat...
...single by Bush in the fifth. Garfield also pitched good ball, allowing only four safeties. The lone tally came in the ninth, when Shea walked, advanced to second on Scully's single, stole third, and came home on a beautiful squeeze play, with Law at the bat. The score by innings: Innings, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 r. h. e. Yale, 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 Princeton...

Individually, the visitors possess a sensational out-fielder in Captain Seibert and a consistent hitter in Clark, the veteran shortstop...
...defeat by hitting Percy and giving Bothfeld a base on balls, the two runners immediately advancing on Coolidge's sacrifice. Nash followed by hitting on Spillaine at first, who caught Percy at home on a close play. Abbot next came to bat and knocked a safe one to short left, scoring Bothfeld and sending Nash to second. Both scored when Harte tripled to deep left field. The final run was made in the ninth. Coolidge singled, went to second on a passed ball, and tallied on Nash's clean hit to right...
