...second inning ended rather unprofitably for Harvard, as Smith and Wiestling struck out, while Foster, who had got first on a fumble of his hit to Blossom, was left on base by Winslow's flying out to Edwards. Blossom made matters look hopeful for the home team by making a clean drive for three bases, and scoring on the hit by Cooper, the next man at the bat. With the aid of Bickham's put-out, and the single by Reynolds, Cooper was enabled to score, and Reynolds, also crossed the plate by means of two successful steals...
Harvard employed the fourth inning in adding one run to its score, made by Willard, who got his base on balls, went to second on a passed ball, third on Blossom's error, and home on a second passed ball.

Nichols, Willard and Smith struck out, but Allen in the interim secured a run on a hit, a steal, a passed ball and a wild pitch. While Bickham, Clark and Shaw were going out on strikes, Reynolds crossed the plate by the aid of a hit, an error, a daring steal and a wild throw. Score...
