The eight begin their travels with a trip to the Harvard-Yale boat-race, where one of their young lady friends attributes the victory of the crimson to the fact that "those old veterans, Ernst and Tyng, have grown bald and gray rowing on the ball-crew."

Ernst luckily gets his base on called balls, and Wright again takes his turn at the bat - again driving the ball to left field for two bases. Ernst scores, but Wright is left on third, as Winsor and Olmstead are put out. 1 run. Yale 4, Harvard...
Nunn is first man out for Harvard on a foul-bound. The game is drawing to an end, with Yale still two runs ahead.

Result: four more runs; making the total, Harvard 9, Yale...
