...dragged along for nine full innings, its monotony only relieved by some error of unusual atrocity, or by a rare good play, such as the trick by which Allen caught Westcott napping at first in the seventh innings, and the double play by Tufts in the sixth. Litchfield and Tilden changed places in the third inning. The best batting was done by Wiestling, Crosby and Chapman...
...freshman game on Holmes was intensely exciting, especially after the fourth inning, when Yale began to do the heavy hitting which tied the score in the sixth inning. Both teams batted hard and fielded loosely. For the the first four innings Yale could do little with Palmer's pitching and failed to score, while our freshmen batted well and by costly errors of their opponents succeeded in scoring seven runs. In the fifth inning Palmer was batted all over the field, and five runs were made for the blue; in that inning one run was added to Harvard's score...
HARVARD, 4; TRINITY, 2.The game was rather uninteresting to witness, neither side doing any fine playing.

Outside of the battery work Smith played best for Harvard, while Rhett fielded best for Brown...
...sixth inning Kimball made a home run on a long hit to right field. Harvard failed to score. In this inning Stearns caught, taking the place of Hunt, who had dislocated a finger. Amherst got a man on third in the seventh inning, but he was kept from scoring. Harvard added three more runs to her score. Allen hit to Tirrel, who fumbled the ball and allowed him to reach first, but he was caught napping at second. Willard got his base on balls, and was sent to third by Smith's two-base hit. Both came...
