...University of Pennsylvania baseball team defeated Brown at Philadelphia yesterday by the close score of 4 to 3. Pennsylvania team made six hits and one error, and Brown seven hits and two errors. The batteries were Layton and Flavell for Pennsylvania and Washburn and Whittemore for Brown. Pennsylvania's next game is on Saturday, with Harvard, at Philadelphia...
...marked tendency to knock high flies. Stillman, in the first four innings, did not allow a hit and gave but one base on balls. His good work was somewhat marred by a wild pitch which advanced a runner to third base in the second inning, and by one fielding error. Clarkson, who pitched the rest of the game, was also very effective. Lafayette's only hit was a bunt towards third base, which Clark did not touch, expecting it to roll outside the foul line.

The infield played well other-wise, expect for slow handling of Blanchard's scratch hit between third and short in the second inning...
...Bowdoin team, Nevers alone played without an error. The whole infield played a fast game at times, but went to pieces with men on bases. Coffin made a brilliant catch of Clark's long fly to deep left field, but expect for that the outfielders were slow, especially in handling hits...
