...honors of the day, the former getting a home run and a single, and the latter two two-baggers and a triple. All of Minds's hits were made with men on bases, while no one was on when Clark made his drive over Minds's head for the circuit. Clark also contributed the fielding feature of the day--a wonderful stop of Sayre's drive between first and second in the eighth...
Captain McIntosh, who had proved a sterling leader at short-stop where he had nothing to occupy him but leading, took Osborne's place in the fifth, the latter being so exhausted by rapid circuit of the bags that Manager Henderson benched him. Both Greeley and Morris handled throws made in practice very well, and Smith covered the p'votal sack and surrounding territory faultlessly, in addition to contributing a single and a triple to the base hit column.

Robinson made a bad throw to first allowing Frye to clear the circuit and Nash to reach third. Nash scored on Clark's sacrifice fly to left...
Professor Taft received his A. B. from Yale in 1878, ranking second in a class of 121; he was salutatorian and class orator. He was admitted to the bar in 1880, and from 1892 to 1900 was United States circuit judge of the sixth Judicial Circuit.
