...hardly seems possible that Ninety-two should play so poorly on Wednesday with Yale. It has been shown that there is good material in the team, and there certainly is reason to expect that good work may be done by the nine on Wednesday. The score...
Saturday afternoon the 'Varsity nine played its second game with the Williams college team, and this time succeeded in defeating it in a close, though not especially exciting contest. The nine was deprived of the services of Captain Willard, who was away, but McKean '90, who covered first base in his stead, played a very creditable game both at the bat and in the field. The home team played remarkably well in the field. The out fielders were slow in fielding the ball in, but the work of the infield was good. Much of the credit of winning the game...

...played his first game of the season and was batted freely; his ridiculous manner created much applause. Linn has hurt his hand and has been unable to play the last two games.

He gave no men bases on balls and struck out three. He was hit very freely, however, Newark getting twelve hits with a total of seventeen. The nine as a whole still...
From an article printed in today's issue it will be seen that the Exeter nine acknowledges a satisfactory explanation from the '91 team, but insist that the 'Varsity and second nines have treated them indifferently. We are sure that the 'varsity have not done anything that can not be satisfactorily explained and that the trouble originated entirely from a misunderstanding. We assure the Exonian that it's repeated charges of Harvard's indifference to Exeter athletics are entirely false. Harvard men realize the importance of developing material in Exeter and anything that leads to an opposite opinion is contrary...
