Last year Brown won the series from Harvard with two close victories, principally through Washburn's effectiveness against Harvard's batters. As Washburn will probably pitch today, the game should be a very hard one. Brown's record this season is not as good as usual. She has lost to Yale, 9 to 3, 15 to 5, and 2 to 0; to Princeton 5 to 2 and 4 to 3; and to Pennsylvania...
...good judgment in sending Stillman in to bat for Clarkson in the ninth inning. Clark continued his improvement in batting, getting two hits; and accepted his fielding chances in good style. Coolidge made two errors, one of which was inexcusable, but these were counterbalanced by his fielding of several hard chances and his timely hit in the eighth inning. Wendell made two clean hits which made his two runs possible, but when he batted at critical times he weakened and made easy outs. Devens got a good lesson in speed from Davies, who several times almost retired men at first...
...made an extensive eastern trip this year, and is playing Harvard for the first time. On the trip the team has been defeated by Syracuse, 8 to 4; by Yale, 12 to 2; and by Brown, 9 to 8. Judging from these scores the game should not be a hard...
...three errors were all inexcusable, and besides these several chances were lost by slow and inaccurate handling of the ball. At the bat the team was unable to make many hits, and in spite of slow pitching only three men batted consistently. What hitting was done, however, was hard and timely. The base running showed too much hesitancy, which would have been costly against a good team. Harvard's playing was, on the whole, a decided slump from the showing made against Pennsylvania...
...somewhat. He was hit for only three singles, and struck out eight men. Kernan misjudged three high fouls, but otherwise he showed some improvement. Except in one instance he threw to bases well, and held pitched balls reliably. Frantz was weak at the bat, partly because of swinging too hard. He fielded faultlessly. Clark made a costly error but he covered plenty of ground and made two opportune hits. George, who has been prevented from playing until recently by his work in the Medical School, played all though the game for the first time this year. His two singles seem...
