Harvard beat Thomson-Houston on Holmes Field yesterday in a game which the chilly weather and one-sided score made very uninteresting. J. Highlands pitched for four innings, and while striking out seven of the visitors, allowed them neither a safe hit nor a run. A. Highlands took his brother's place in the last three innings, and was hit safely but three times. Behind the bat however Corbett dropped eight out of twelve third strikes, and once missed his man at first...
Wheeler's wildness, two errors by J. Bannan, and a sacrifice by Abbott gave Harvard three unearned runs in the first inning. In the second, Trafford was hit by a pitched ball, took second on an error and scored on Highlands single. Abbott added one in the third, getting a base on balls and scoring on Sullivan's single and Trafford's sacrifice...

...seventh two more runs were tallied. Dickinson scored the second earned run by a hit, two stolen bases, and a single by Hallowell. The other run was made by Corbett. Abbott and Sullivan scored in the eighth, both getting bases on balls, Abbott stealing second and third, and Sullivan second, and both coming home on Millard's muff of Corbett's fly to short center. This ended the scoring, though Hallowell made a very pretty two base hit in the next inning...
