In the second inning, when Chandler lined out a hot base-hit to left field, Doughty let the ball go by him and it rolled down the track, enableing Chandler to score. Heffernan's errors in the fifth also resulted in runs for Harvard. In the eighth inning, Edwards took Plunkett's place in the box. The score follows...
...fine showing Pennsylvania has made in the dual contests with Harvard and with Cornell, it is generally felt among the students that the prospects of the university winning the Mott Haven games are brighter than they have been for some years.

The team felt confident of winning when they left for New Haven, but the hard races in the Pennsylvania games and the time trials...
