...Norton made third out in the same way. In Harvard's half of the fifth, a little judgment might have brought in a ru+++. Hallowell got a single by Norton, but for some unaccountable reason tried to take second, and was thrown out by at least ten feet. Frothingham hit a hot one by Bowers to Norton, and was thrown out at first. Hovey got a single to left field, and stole second very prettily. Here he was left, as Cook made the third out on a grounder to Murphy, which was very neatly handled...
Yale's sixth inning yielded no better results than any of the others. They could not seem to get a ball out of the diamond.

Corhett got a single to right field, but was caught off the base, and this ended the inning...
Even in the last inning Yale failed to make her customary spurt, and the outs were one, two, three in order. Kedzie went out on three strikes. Murphy hit a high fly to Highlands, and Beall ended the game on a grounder, Cook to Dickinson...
