Smith covered first base in fine style, having played an errorless game thus far this season. Beaman made several fine stops of hard hit grounders, and his accurate throwing to first was worthy of praise. The nine showed a decided improvement in base running. Nichols and White led in batting.

Bruner made a very difficult catch of a hard hit fly over the right field fence. Phillips and Edgerly led in fielding, Phillips, Kimball and Chamberlain in batting.
