...Dartmouth team yesterday proved itself to be a very weak one, and Harvard won with the greatest ease. Our men were able to hit Hartshorne apparently at will, while the Dartsmouth players could get only four singles off Bates' delivery. In the field Dartmouth played a wretched game, Baehr and Eaton being especially weak. With the exception of two errors by Cook Harvard's play was faultless, Hallowell and Howe putting up an especially pretty game. Dean was back at second base, where he played until the sixth inning. Our base running was better than on Monday, but there...
...fourth Worcester failed to score. The first three Harvard men at the bat went out. In the fifth Howe took Bates' place in the box. Worcester made a run on a base on balls, a hit, a wild pitch and Howe's muff at the plate of Cobb's throw. Again Harvard's first three men went out, two of them at second base...

Murphy got his base on balls, was forced to second by Lynch, whom Howe hit, took third on Howe's fumble of Bird's easy grounder and reached the plate on O'Brien's sacrifice. That is, the umpire said he did. Everybody else thought differently. Lynch, who had mean while reached third, came in on Hovey's wild throw to the plate.

Minton and Cabot composed the battery. The pitcher had an off day and gave six bases on balls, hit three men and allowed three hits in the first inning. The catcher broke his finger at the very beginning of the game and so was unable to hold the third strike. He, however, persisted in playing through the inning and of course made several errors. Linfield and Clarke were put in at the end of the first inning...
