He was off in his throwing to bases and made a couple of costly errors in wild throws to first. The infield did not give him anything like clean support. Altogether the nine played a poorer game than it has for some time past...
...first inning only brilliant playing prevented Lovell's nine from scoring. Rudderham got to first on a muff by Frothingham. O'Brien followed with a clean single past second base. Fitz knocked a grounder to Hovey, who threw quickly to Cook. The latter had plenty of time to put out Rudderham, who was forced from second, but he neglected to touch the base.

Harvard's two errors were both made by Dickinson in the first inning and one of them was very excusable. The umpiring was good and the hard, clean hitting made the game interesting. Harvard outplayed Brown at every point except being the bat; Upton was very wild in his throwing to bases...
