...visitors was the individual star of the engagement, getting a home run and three singles in five trips to the plate. Peckham's home run which came in the third inning with two men on bases, was one of the longest hits on Soldiers Field this season, reaching the infield of the University diamond before coming to a stop. M. P. Davis and E. S. Hardell were the leaders of the Freshman attack, each getting three hits, the latter's including a triple. T. J. Meehan, with a three-base hit, and R. B. Shaw, with a double, were...
Both teams scored twice in the fourth inning. For the Radio men two singles, an error, a stolen base, and an infield out, brought in the runs. For the University, Wolverton singled. Hallowell walked. Ward flied out. The base-runners advanced on an infield out and scored on J. S. Mosle '20's hit to right...

Finally...
...crucial moment. Twice players were caught off base by the pitcher. Peirson, who, with Gammack formed the University battery, held Portland to four safeties and might have scored a shut-out except for poor support. Wolverton, who replaced Captain Gross at shortstop, played an excellent game in the infield, accepting six chances without error. A double play, Hallo-well to Bright to Johnson, was a feature of the day's play. Dickson at second base made a very pretty catch of Burn's fly in right field in the first inning...
