Wilson delivered the crowning blow in the seventh, overwhelming the Big Red and pitcher Jim Hyland with a three-run blast. The home run put Harvard up for good and concluded the team’s day-long, two-game offensive romp...
...trumped eBay in terms of high-level access: it appears to have met with the patent office's general counsel, James Toupin, and another senior official, John Whealan.
