Harvard scored her two runs in the fifth inning on a double by Loughlin, an infield out, and a long fly by Fincke. Clark was then hit by a pitched ball, advanced to third by Wendell's single, and came in by good base-running on a fumble of the return of the ball from the outfield...
...taking advantage of Yale's errors. Clarkson pitched remarkably well, striking out nineteen men, and with good support would have shut Yale out. The fielding on both sides was slow and uncertain, allowing several men to be credited with hits who should have been retired. The Yale infield was much superior to Harvard's, but the outfielders were slow in returning hits and did not cover much ground. Next to Clarkson, Story did the best work for Harvard. He did not have many chances in the field, but he batted well, and ran bases with good judgment. Clark went into...
...Princeton team has made an excellent showing so far this season, and is probably the strongest nine that Harvard will meet. The infield is considerably stronger than it was last year, through the addition of Steinwender, Meier and Pearson, Hutchinson, shortstop on last year's team, has beaten Hutchings in the competition for third base, and is now filling the position very well. Of the outfielders, Paulmier is a new man, but Burke played on the '98 nine, and Watkin on last year's team...

Stillman pitched a creditable game, though lacking his usual good control. For Pennsylvania Collier and Shape did most of the hitting. The infield had easy chances for the most part, and, except in the eighth inning played a good game...

Ward '02, who has been playing well on the college nine, but he proved unsatisfactory. The make-up of the infield has not been changed at all, and probably will not be, as Sharpe, Quinby, Camp and Brown are playing as fast a game as any Yale infield has played for years. Garvan pitched the one game played by Yale last week and held Lafayette down to five hits. Yale...
