...Yale last Saturday afternoon in the Stadium. Throughout the game the playing of the University team was much superior to that of its opponents, but there was no team play nor direction at critical times. The individual men played very creditable games, but it was only occasionally that they got together enough to make a concentrated attack. The ball, however, was kept well in Yale's territory during the whole game, the defense seldom having a chance to show its skill...
Although the Freshmen came near scoring in the first and second innings, they were prevented by good fielding. In the eighth inning, Aronson, the first man up, got to first on Logan's error, took second on Palmer's sacrifice, and scored on Hall's second hit, a hard drive to right centre. In the ninth Delano went to first on a dead ball, and was advanced to third on singles by Foster and Brown. With the bases full, Hicks hit a slow roller towards pitcher, which forced Delano at the plate. Pond, the last man on the list, lined...

Leonard's grounder to Shannon advanced him to third, and he scored on Briggs' hit. Andover got a man on base in the last half of the tenth inning through McCall's error, but was unable to score...

The first heat of the 220-yard dash was very hot, but the leading man got cold feet, and the heat, dying, was declared a dead one. The axe-sharpening contest was one by A. Hard Grynde...

They scored again in the eighth, when Hall got a hit, and advanced to third on Lanigan's two-bagger. Both scored on Delano's single. Middlesex made both of their runs in the ninth, as a result of two bases on balls, a sacrifice, and a single...
