...together from the first, and no important changes in coaching or development were made necessary. The nine has won more than the usual proportion of games played, in spite of the most unfavorable weather conditions that have prevailed for many years. The schedule this year has not been as hard as in former years, which was perhaps fortunate, considering the continuous bad weather. Lately, however, the team has successfully come through a number of hard games, which should serve to season the men well, although none of them has furnished anything like the strain of a Yale game...

Clarkson, who took his place in the fifth, did well until the eighth inning, when he gave Brown three hits which netted two runs. Frantz did entirely too much swinging at the ball, and missed two good chances to bring in runs. Weldell had two hits, one a three base hit, but struck out in the ninth inning with a man on second base. The excellent fielding of Clark, Coolidge and Fincke, in spite of the disadvantage of playing on a hard clay diamond...
