...credit of the victory, however, lies chiefly with Hayes and Reid; Hayes for his pitching and fielding, Reid for his catching and batting. Hayes had absolute control over the ball with very good curves and speed. He gave no bases on balls and struck nine men out. Though the nine played with an encouraging amount of dash in the field, this was offset by its weak batting-the team seemed to refuse all chance of offensive play.
