...University nine did not hit as well as on Saturday, and only once succeeded in bunching hits. The new line-up was a marked success. Stephenson and Simons accepted all their chances in the outfield, and Currier was fast and wide awake behind the bat. He held Greene well and threw accurately to the bases...
Stephenson played a fast game in the outfield on his Freshman nine, but was not altogether at home there yesterday. Toward the end of the practice he improved, however, and made some good catches. Currier was originally a candidate for catcher, and was moved to the outfield later in the year. At Holy Cross, where he substituted for Stephenson, he caught a lively game, but was unsteady in throwing to bases. Yesterday afternoon, under the coaching of W. T.

Pounds made the first hit for Harvard, but in the next two times at bat struck out twice, and was replaced by Currier. Dexter was unreliable in the field and at bat, and was replaced by Smith in the seventh inning. Stephenson and Leonard played their usual good games...
