...both throwing poorly and dropping many pitched balls. Foster, at first base, was also weak in fielding and at times showed poor judgment. Story and Van Amringe, at third base and shortstop, did well, but Jackson, at second base, was weak on thrown balls and made a bad fielding error. In the outfield, Clarkson did fairly well, Comins fielded his position satisfactorily except for one bad error, and his throw to the plate in the eighth inning was the feature of the game. Dever had no chances in the field, but at bat he was weak...
...southern trip the Yale team won three games and lost three. In general the batting was fair and the fielding weak, except in the game with the University of Virginia, which Yale played without an error.

Coolidge at shortstop fielded his position without an error, and Fincke made three base-hits in four times at the bat. Stillman pitched a strong game, using good judgment and giving Virginia only five scattered hits...
