...error Harvard secured two more runs in the eighth. Whittemore knocked a clean hit to center, which might have been good for two bases but for a running stop by Fultz, and Scannell knocked a grounder to Lowney who attempted to get Whittemore at second, Whittemore stole the base easily and ran toward third between Donovan and Lowney...

Bradley was on first and had a fair chance to make second, but was held...

Only three men struck out and one got his base on balls. They were, however, unable to bat effectively and as a general rule could not succeed in getting the ball past the infield...
