...first inning the Sophomores started by scoring three runs, two of which were earned. Another run was earned in the third on a pass to Carr, a sacrifice hit and a single by Minot. One run was added in the eighth inning and another in the ninth...
Williams started out well in the first inning, when the first man up hit over second base and the next man sacrificed. The two following men were easy outs, however, and Williams was obliged to wait till another inning. Hicks' passed the first man in the second inning.

The Pitcher and third-baseman watched the ball in amazement and made no attempt to field it. Aronson stole second, and after Simons had sent a fly to right field, Dana was passed. Another inning was made necessary, however, as Crocker struck...
