...first game of the series Saturday on Holmes Field, the game resulting in a victory for the home team. The ground was damp and soggy and the ball wet, which accounts for many of the errors. Both nines played well, yet both had one innings in which they went to pieces. The Harvard team went to bat in the first and succeeded in getting six runs, none earned, by means of some errors and three hits, all bunched. In the second, two more runs were added to the Harvard score by hits by Codman and Luce and a base...

The base-running was poor, as usual. The score...

Mansfield to face the bowling of Ellis and Brown. Wright was clean bowled by Brown when he had made only one. The rest of the team were also soon disposed of, and the innings closed for 47. Harvard then went in, but with the exception of Paul, who played well for his 13, no one was able to make a stand against the good bowling of Wright...
