...Goode was unable to stop. O'Hearn got a double, Desibons was walked and Aldrich bunted neatly, filling the bases. At this critical moment Goode forced in a run by walking Warren while Eddy got a clean single scoring two more runs. At this point Russell went to the mound, but the Elis were able to take a run from him on an error and a two-bagger before he could hold them under control...
...after their initial clash at New Haven, will meet for the second game of the series tomorrow at Soldiers Field at 3 o'clock. Goode is slated to start as pitcher for the University, while Wight, who downed the powerful Holy Cross nine, will probably be on the Eli mound. The University batting order will be the same as that used yesterday, Hallock and Janin exchanging the positions they have long held on the University offense. HARVARD YALE Lincoln, 3b. l.f., Crane Gordon, r.f. 1b., O'Hearn Conlon, s.s. c.f., Oed Owen, 1b. s.s., Aldrich Jenkins, 2b. 3b., Warren Hallock...
With Conlon back at short stop, the team will be at full strength in the field for the initial clash with the Blue. On the mound Yale might have a slight advantage today for Coach Slattery has definitely decided to save Goode for Wednesday. Very probably this will mean that Gehrke will start, although there is still a bare possibility that Russell may be given another opportunity. Gehrke was used for a number of innings against the difficult Tufts combination, but in spite of this fact he is the logical man, as Russell has had poor success in his last...
Tufts has an exceptionally heavy hitting team, with six men batting well over 300. Loud on second leads the list with an average of 487 while Captain Weefer follows with an average of 439. On the mound, too, the team has a number of exceptional men. Colvin managed to hold the hard-hitting Holy Cross batters to six hits while he walked but two men. It is very doubtful, however, if he will be able to start the game. According to present plans Captain Weefer will be the opening pitcher, while Morrell will be held in reserve...
...spite of its long string of victories, the team has, at times, shown a weakness in the field; in the Princeton game it very nearly suffered defeat on account of numerous errors. This deficiency is, however, more than made up for on the mound and at the plate. Maynard, the veteran shortstop, has been leading the batting list with an average above 880, while Dagostino and Caswell are other 300 hitters who may cause Russell some trouble...
