...Inning. Walden and Hopkins knock easy flies to Coolidge; Watson earns first, and is running to third on a hit to the out-field by Ripley, but he is thrown out, by Winsor to Holden. This brilliant play saves a run. Tyng, for Harvard, goes out on a fly to right-field; Ernst reaches first base on a missed third-strike; Wright steps up to bat, and earns two bases on a long liner out to left field, bringing Ernst home, amidst great excitement.
