...were in their old positions at catcher and third base, and both played steady games. Castle, who took Taylor's place as pitcher in the sixth inning, kept the hits fairly well scattered, and struck out five men. Taylor who preceded him was batted hard. The inexperience of the outfield was very evident at times by their inability to judge flies...
...four men who played in the Yale series last year are now on the squad, and the shifting of McCarty from the outfield to first base makes his position somewhat uncertain.

The work consisted entirely of fielding practice for the infield and outfield, the men lining up in the following order: Stephenson, c.; McCarthy, 1b.; McCall, 2b.; Simons, s.s.; Leonard, 3b.; Hellman, r.f.; Dexter, c.f.; Pounds...
