...Freshman team was very encouraging in view of the fact that this was its first game. The chief fault of the team as a whole was the tendency of the attack to fall back on the defense. Although there was decided improvement in team-work, the men were slow and clumsy in handling their sticks...
...first inning, H. Kernan received a base on balls and reached second on an error by Pattee, Matthews reaching first on the same play. Randall reached first on a base on balls, when Clarkson's slow infield grounder allowed Kernan to score, and Matthews to reach third base, Randall being put out at second in the same play. By stealing second, Clarkson drew the throw, thus allowing Matthews to score Harvard's second run. No more scoring was done until the sixth inning, when Kernan made a safe hit, and Matthews's infield hit was thrown wide by Lynch, allowing...
...University baseball team defeated Williams on Saturday, in a slow game, by a score of 8 to 2. The team showed less spirit than they have in previous games, for when a victory was practically assured, the men made little effort to increase the score, with the result that the game was the slowest played by the team this year.

Although not spirited...
...Second nine defeated the Roxbury Latin School team on Saturday afternoon in a poorly played game by the score of 11 to 8. The fielding of the Second nine was slow and ragged, especially on the part of Colby. The batting, too, was exceedingly weak, and the runs were made for the most part on the opponents errors. Smith pitched a fairly good game, with the exception of the fifth inning, when three bases on balls, a home ran by Kennedy, an error by Colby, and a wild throw to the plate, coupled with another hit, brought in seven runs...
...given a start of 20 seconds and although the first steadily shortened the distance between the two boats it was unable to get the lead. Owing to the crooked course and the rough water, caused by a strong ebb tide and a wind blowing up-stream, the time was slow. The orders of the crews were somewhat different from those of the early part of the week. Lawson replaced Hartwell at 7 in the first boat, and Haycock, who had been rowing at 7 in the, second, was moved to 5, his old place being taken by Hartwell...
