...kick and recovered the ball on the Juniors' 45-yard line. A forward pass was tried again unsuccessfully and Heath and Foster again gained well on their skin-tackle and line-bucking plays. When at last they were held for downs on 1912's 40-yard line, they stole the ball on the next play and ran the length of the field for a touchdown, but this was not allowed and the Sophomores were forced to kick. Stebbins recovered the punt, and on the next play took the ball, on a wide end run, to the Juniors' 8-yard line...

The Pitcher and third-baseman watched the ball in amazement and made no attempt to field it. Aronson stole second, and after Simons had sent a fly to right field, Dana was passed. Another inning was made necessary, however, as Crocker struck out. Brown opened the last half of the thirteenth with a fly to centre field.
