Brown won the game in the first inning, when a base on balls and a home run gave a lead of two runs. For six innings thereafter the University team played a lifeless and stupid game and refused to score when runs seemed inevitable. Simons opened the seventh, however, with a home run and the possibility of winning instilled a little interest in the game. Brown was held without score in the last three innings, although three men got to first in the ninth. With two out in the last of the ninth the University team made its first real...
Simons led at the bat for Harvard with a three-bagger and a single; and Aronson and Dana each hit safely twice. For Cornell Ebeling duplicated Simons's record at the bat. The fielding of the home team was on the whole only mediocre, and the playing was at times listless. Harvard played championship ball and the chances taken on the bases prevented the score from being larger...
Howes proved easy from the very beginning. Lanigan singled to left, the ball being too swift for the third baseman to handle.

Currier made third and Aronson second on the throw in. MacLaughlin struck out, but Dana drove a liner to right, and Currier scored. Aronson was cut off at the plate on Ebeling's throw...

Dana and Briggs flied out, but Simons made a long three base hit to centre field, and came home for the second run of the inning on Hicks's hit to right. Cornell made its first run in the same inning when Caldwell hit to the right field fence for three bases, and scored on Ebeling's grounder to first...
Harvey made Harvard's last run in the seventh. Lanigan reached first on an error but was caught at second. Harvey singled to right, stole second, and reached home on two passed balls. Cornell brought the run back, however, in the last half of the inning. Ebeling opened with a long three-bagger, and scored when MacLaughlin muffed Williams's drive. Matchneer struck out, and Judson was safe at first on a fielder's choice, which retired Williams at third. A hit by Howard was fielded to third by Aronson, and Lanigan threw to Simons, who put out Judson. Howard...
