...University baseball team shut out Amherst yesterday afternoon on Soldiers Field by the score of 2 to 0. With the exception of Brennan's excellent pitching, there was little cause for encouragement in Harvard's game. The hitting, off a second rate pitcher, who lacked both speed and curves, was very weak, and with men on the bases was even worse. Three errors were made, none of which fortunately proved costly, but on the bases everything seemed to go wrong...
Brennan deserves the credit for the victory. At no time in the game did Amherst have a chance against his pitching. His speed and change of pace were excellent and his curves proved too much for the opposing batters. Captain Dexter's all-around work was faultless. In the field, his only chance was a hard drive by McClure in the sixth, close to the foul line, which he got after a long run. Each time at bat, he hit the ball squarely, getting a three-bagger the first time and being called out at first on an infield...
Only two Amherst men reached second during the game. In the second inning, McClure secured the solitary hit off Brennan and went to second on a passed ball. The next two men struck out, and Michaels knocked a pop fly to McCall. In the fourth, with two men out, McClure knocked an easy grounder towards second, which went through McCall's legs. Simons threw poorly to Briggs on Henry's grounder, McClure taking second on the play. McCall ended the inning with a pretty catch of Danahey's fly over second. HARVARD a.b. r. b.h. p.o. a. e.

...Second baseball team was defeated by Dean Academy yesterday afternoon, in a game replete with errors and heavy hitting, by the score of 18 to 11. In the third inning four bases on balls, seven errors and four base hits gave Dean eleven runs...
...ball well, making a total of 12 hits, two of which were two-baggers, while Dean made only eight hits. Four of the runs made by the Second team were earned. The defeat was directly due to the loose fielding, as 16 errors were made during the game, eight of which were credited to one player. Withington and Little pitched for the Second team, and Porter for Dean. Innings, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R. H. E. 2nd Team, 3 0 0 1 0 0 2 5 0--11 12 16 Dean...
