...game yesterday resulted in a well earned victory for Brown. Woodcock pitched a fine game, striking out nine men and holding the Harvard team down to seven scattering hits. At the bat he knocked out a home run and two singles. Brown won because she bunched her hits, earning four of her six runs. Harvard's seven hits, on the other hand, were distributed through five innings. The only thing about our playing that seemed to puzzle Brown was the base running, yet this was not perfect. We might have had one more run as easily...
Brown failed to score until the third inning. In the first Harvard made a run on scratch hits by Hovey and Trafford, a stolen base, and a wild throw by Thurston.

In the fifth Lowe got his base on balls, was forced to second by a base on balls given to Sullivan, and came home on Quinn's hit and Bennett's sacrifice. This ended the scoring for Boston till the ninth inning. Then Howe gave three bases on balls in succession, and hit the next man who came to the bat. The next man after him knocked a grounder to Cook, who fumbled it. Altogether four runs came in, and the Bostons...
