...whole gratifying to their supporters, the several hundred students who shivered on the benches of Jarvis. Of course it is impossible to make any decided criticism of the play after only one game. Still there are some things which attracted attention. The work of the regular battery seemed almost faultless and is an improvement over the performances of last year. Thus early are the good effects of the winter's cage work evident. The little fielding which was required of the men was almost perfect and if continued during the remainder of the season it will be impossible for many...
...train to stand so much daily work. Princeton's great advantage of course lies in beginning work before the middle of September. Then as most of the men are upper classmen whose play and positions are comparatively well known, the team is soon permanently picked out, and an almost faultless team play results.

Both the pitchers did good work, Chamberlain striking out ten men and being hit for only five...
...nine as a whole is to be congratulated on the steadiness and coolness of its play in the field. The batting, as was to be expected, was very weak. For Yale, Hubbard caught a faultless game, while Jones was very effective as pitcher. Other features of the game for Yale were the second base play of Terry, the base running of Hopkins and the batting of Jones and Childs. The result of the game was decidedly encouraging for the Harvard nine. The following is the score...
