...nine defeated Brown yesterday afternoon in an exciting game. Cook made his first appearance since the Williams game and strengthened the team materially. The outfield showed up very weak, some of the errors being inexcusable. Brown outfielded Harvard, but her errors were very costly, as every Harvard man who got his base on errors scored a run. Highlands pitched a magnificent game, striking out 16 men and allowing but 4 scattering hits. Corbett made a home run in the second inning with two men on bases. The score...
...word was given at three minutes past six. '94 got the best of the start, but '96 was rapidly gaining and would have passed them in a few more strokes when they were called back by the referee's whistle. No. 7 in the junior boat had jumped his slide and a fresh start was taken. This time the three crews shot out as one boat, and remained together to the quarter mile mark. Here '95 dropped the stroke to 30 per minute, while '94 and '96 kept steadily at it, the first rowing 36 and the latter 34 strokes...
...Wednesday. The team received a general shaking up. Captain Wiggin was in the box with O'Malley as catcher. Winslow and Stevenson exchanged places. Corbett played for the first time this year in center field and McCarthy took Hayes's place at right. In the ninth inning Wiggin got first on a safe hit and reached second on Smalley's fumble of Whittemore's hit. Winslow hit the ball to Smalley, who tried to catch Wiggin at third, but Folsom's foot was off the base and the bases were full. Dickinson hit to shortstop who threw Wiggin...
...eighth inning Harvard lost a chance to score an extra run through McCarthy's being coached in. Stevenson got a single, stole second and went to third on Hayes's hit. Seannell got his base on balls and the bases were full. McCarthy hit to Gregory who threw to first, where there was no one to catch the ball. Stevenson and Hayes scored and Scannell crossed the plate on a wild throw to third. McCarthy was coached in and caught at home. Had he staid on third he would have scored on the hit by Whittemore which followed...
...They have for a captain a man who has no practical experience in the game, who therefore is not qualified to coach the team. Take the combination of circumstances and the '97 nine is the weakest freshman team within the experience of any undergraduate. On Tuesday they just barely got a victory over the Roxbury Latin School nine, which is weaker by far than the team from that school which was defeated by the Cambridge High and Latin School last year, with the score 30 to 1 in five innings. Wednesday afternoon the freshmen were defeated by the Somerville High...
