...said in praise of our men for defeating, in their newly organized state and without the services of their regular pitcher, so strong a team. The game was very exciting, and well played, comparatively few errors being made, while the batting was above the average.

This lead was kept throughout, but greatly augmented by an addition of eight runs in one innings. The Yale Nine outbatted us, but in the field had quite a number of errors, though not equalling our number, as the score will show. In the field, Smith, - who took Morgan's place behind...
