...batting was wretched; the men were flustered at the bat and made only six hits against one of Andover's weaker pitchers. They hit to the infield, sent a few flies to the outfield, and struck out three times. As the batting stands at present Harvard must either shut out her opponents or lose...
Amherst was shut out by Clarkson's steady pitching. Clarkson allowed two hits, struck out 13 men, and was especially effective when Amherst had men on bases. In the field the team was steady, but the batting showed no improvement. The game emphasized the team's most serious fault. The men lacked aggressiveness at the bat and were content to let one or two strikes pass before offering at the ball; this attitude resulting in nine strike-outs.

Fincke, Coolidge, Clark and Frantz worked well together in the infield. The running down of Layton between the first and second while Noble was held at third in the third inning, and a fast double play...
