Lanigan opened the sixth with a clean hit to centre and Harvey's out, Logan to Jefferson, put him on second. Currier, however, hit a liner to Cushman from which a double play at second would have resulted but for the latter's poor head-work.

The latter caught it close to the ground and threw to first. Harvard's other run came in the sixth with two out, when Dana hit to Reed, who threw far over Warwick's head into the bleachers. There should have been another run in the eighth. Currier singled, and was advanced a base on Aronson's sacrifice.
