...York trip was not very successful, the Harvard team being beaten by "Atlantics," "Eurekas," "Excelsiors" and "Actives," 37-15, 42-39, 46-28 54 15. In these games the Harvard catcher, Flagg, catches pluckily although his hands are badly bunged up. The Eureka game was interrupted by a "fat 'Jersey' pig, making full trot for the pitcher's stand." Wild pitching and weariness of the nine is Harvard's explanation of the defeats. After returning home, without going to Hartford, the nine slaughtered the Beacon's in a finely played game, 77 to 11.

Yale certainly has not won the championship of 1886 and yet she has played...
...better University eleven, may follow the good example that ninety has set in regard to the Yale game. Harvard ought to improve on ninety in regard to the other games played during the year. We have accomplished this year what has been hitherto impossible, our freshman team has beaten Yale. The coming freshman team, we believe, will win the three important games of the year, Yale, Exeter and Andover, for there will no longer be an unbroken record of defeats against which to contend...
