...this year, and seven runs were allowed principally on misplays by Clarkson. Lauder, the first man at bat knocked a fly to Dean, and then Robinson struck out. At this point Harvard held the lead, three to two and Brown had only one more inning to play. Lauder then hit an easy grounder to Clarkson who fielded the ball slowly and then threw poorly to first. A moment later Paine caught Lauder napping off first but when Stevenson turned to throw to second, Clarkson was not covering the base. Two chances had then been offered to retire the side...
With a score on nine to three against it, the Harvard team showed what it could do when the game was already lost.

After Lewis had fouled out to Scannell, Street feinted and drew a throw, Henry scoring and Street reaching second. Heffernan bunted and was out, but Street scored on a wild throw to third...
