...GAME.Harvard went first to the bat and scored two runs, on a double by Winslow, a single by Nichols, and an error by Sheppard. Yale brought a man over the plate by a base on balls and a long drive to right field for three bases by Marsh. This closed Yale's score until the ninth inning, when the second and final run was made. Harvard failed to add to her score until the fifth inning, when singles by Beaman, Winslow, Nichols and Edgerly, and two attempted put-outs and a trio of errors resulted in seven runs...
...fourth, four more hits and several costly errors by the Brown men enabled Harvard to make three more runs; score, 6 to 1. The fifth was even more disastrous for Brown. Foster went out, third base to first. Then Wiestling made his second hit of the game, a tremendous drive far over the left field fence, and scored an earned run. Singles by Beaman and Winslow, a two-base hit by Willard and three errors by Brown brought the total number of runs for the inning up to five; score...
...Allen to short stop, forcing out Nichols at second. In the same inning, Smith made a beautiful catch of a hot liner from Safford's bat. In the fifth, wild throws by third base, pitcher, short stop, and first base, a hit by Choate, and Nichols' hard drive just inside of third-a home run-netted Harvard five runs. In the seventh, Eastman reached first on Foster's muff, a very excusable error however, but failed to score. In the eighth inning, Nichols reached first on balls, Allen and Smith hit safely, and then a fumble by Talcott gave Harvard...

Princeton scored two runs in this inning. Cooper got his base on balls, and came in on Clark's drive for three bases; Clark scored on the error by Edgerly which allowed Taylor to reach first; Van Ausdal struck out; Taylor was thrown out at second by Allen, and Edwards fouled out. Score, 9 to 2 for Harvard...
...ended rather unprofitably for Harvard, as Smith and Wiestling struck out, while Foster, who had got first on a fumble of his hit to Blossom, was left on base by Winslow's flying out to Edwards. Blossom made matters look hopeful for the home team by making a clean drive for three bases, and scoring on the hit by Cooper, the next man at the bat. With the aid of Bickham's put-out, and the single by Reynolds, Cooper was enabled to score, and Reynolds, also crossed the plate by means of two successful steals and a passed ball...
