...quick to recover. He was not given many chances to throw to bases, but once was very wild, letting in two runs. His pretty home run, however, brought in two for Harvard, which evened matters up. The base running was better than in the last game, but was careless at times, while the coaching was not at all what it should have been. It was a thorough disappointment to the college at large, that a game so creditable from a batting point of view, should be so weak in nearly all other respects. Below is the score...
...error after error, and allowing the freshmen to score twelve runs. For the first two innings, '95 played a careful game, and did not allow their opponents to score. Walker's catching was not up to his usual standard, however. In the last three innings, the men became rather careless, and let Browne and Nichols score seven runs...
Coonley is slow, fields his position well, bats fairly; Walker is a good backstop, accurate but very slow thrower, poor batter; Lighthall is careless, weak on ground balls, poor batter; Wadsworth is uncertain, very poor on ground balls, fair batter but tries to hit too hard; Wilder is a fairly good man but is so slow that he cannot be counted on; Cassatt fields his position very prettily but is not a sure man, fair batter; Phelan is a good fielder; Bigelow is slow and is inclined to go to sleep out in the field, good batter; Adams is very...

The playing on the whole, was not quite so good as on Friday, the men being a little careless apparently. The base running was much better though, and the batting rather better. Upton was in fair condition, but his throwing to second was not good at all. Mason in left field, covered himself with glory, getting, a number of difficult long running catches. At centre, Paine covered a good deal...
Trafford was as steady as could be desired at first, and seemed to step right into his last year's playing without trouble. Whittemore ran bases very well, but seemed a little careless on ground balls. The game was played as on Friday, nine out on a side, and repeating the plays when necessary...
