...victory of the freshmen was due chiefly to the good fielding work of the out-field. None of the fielders missed a chance; Chandler caught two balls, one a very difficult one, Goodridge caught three, and Edmunds caught four, two of which were hard to get. Cozzens did not pitch as well as he did in the game last Monday, but he received excellent support. He showed great calmness at critical times, and saved the game several times. Brown caught much better than he did last week and was especially good in throwing to second. Walker might have...
Scott began the fourth by knocking a high fly which Cozzens caught. Fox hit to near the foul line in right field, allowing Chandler to make a very difficult catch. Anderson was unfortunate in having Brown catch a long foul off his bat. After Edmunds got a base on balls he foolishly started for second on Goodridge's pop fly, thereby allowing Perry and Fox to make a double play.

...outfield Hayes was very slow in starting after the ball. Burgess accepted four chances without an error and Rand in left covered a great deal of ground and made one fine catch of a very difficult fly. He and Burgess show a great tendency to get in each other's way when after fly balls, but this is due to lack of coaching more than anything else...
