Only a few men accompanied the nine to New Haven on Saturday, but those who did were doubly repaid for their trip. The game opened at 3.40 o'clock with Yale at the bat. Hopkins took his base on Coolidge's fumble and second on a passed ball. Terry went out by Winslow to Smith, and Hopkins took third base. Bremner made a two base hit to centre field, bringing in Hopkins, but was himself cut off trying to reach third base; Souther struck out. For Harvard, Coolidge made a base hit; Baker hit a ground ball to Terry, who touched second and threw to Stewart, making a double play. Phillips took first base on Oliver's muff of a 'pop' fly, but was thrown out at second by Souther to Terry. Score, Yale 1, Harvard 0.
In the second inning Yale retired in order. For Harvard, LeMoyne made a base hit; Tilden went out on a fly to McKee, sending LeMoyne to second. Allen took first base on a wild throw by Hopkins and he and LeMoyne took second and third respectively on Souther's wild throw. There now seemed to be a good chance for Harvard to score, but Smith and Winslow struck out, leaving the two men on bases.
Third inning. Yale went out in order. For Harvard, Nichols struck out and Coolidge went out on a foul fly to Brigham; Baker got his base on balls, but Phillips fouled out to Souther leaving him on first base. In the fourth inning, Yale scored two runs on Terry's hit and Baker's two errors. Stewart made a two-base hit after two men were out, but was left on second. For Harvard, after two men were out, Allen made a base hit and stole second; Smith took his base on balls but Winslow flied out to Brigham, leaving two men on bases. Score, Yale 3, Harvard 0. In the fifth inning, with one man out, Oliver made a two-base hit, but Hopkins and Terry flied out to Tilden and LeMoyne respectively, and he was left on second. Harvard went out in order.
Sixth inning. Yale earned two runs on hits by Bremner, Souther and Booth, making the score 5 to 0 against us. For Harvard, Phillips took three bases on Booth's wild throw, LeMoyne reached first on balls, and Tilden made a beautiful two-base hit, bringing in the first two runs for Harvard. The next three men, however, went out in order, leaving Tilden on second base. Score, Yale 5, Harvard 2.
In the seventh, Yale made two more runs on Bremner's hit and two errors by Phillips. Harvard earned two runs on singles by Coolidge and Phillips and Baker's beautiful three-base hit. Score, Yale 7, Harvard 4. Neither side scored in the eighth inning, although Oliver made a base hit for Yale.
Ninth inning. Terry led off with a safe hit. Bremner went out on a ground ball to Smith, and Terry took second base. Souther hit a grounder to Baker, who threw to Phillips to cut off Terry, but was too late. Souther stole second base but Booth and Stewart went out, leaving two men on bases. The score now stood 7 to 4 in Yale's favor, and the outlook for Harvard was dismal. But our nine was equal to the emergency. Nichols was given his base on balls and took second on Brigham's muff of Coolidge's fly. Baker made a base hit, filling the bases. Phillips hit a ground ball to Terry, who threw prettily to Souther, cutting off Nichols at home plate. With the bases full, LeMoyne made a pretty base hit, bringing in Coolidge and Baker and sending Phillips to third. Tilden hit an extremely swift grounder to Oliver which was too hot for him to handle with ease, and Phillips came home, tying the score. Oliver picked up the ball and threw to first, but was too late to catch Tilden. LeMoyne, in the mean time, had reached third and started for home, but turned back and Stewart threw to Hopkins to catch him off his base. Hopkins, however, muffed the ball, and LeMoyne scored the winning run with only one man out and Tilden on second.
At the close of the game, the few Harvard men who were present rushed onto the field with the wildest enthusiasm and accompanied the nine in the harge to the hotel, cheering frantically.
For Harvard, Allen caught splendidly and Winslow pitched a very steady game; while Tilden, Smith and LeMoyne played faultlessly. The batting was quite heavy, Tilden, Baker and LeMoyne distinguishing themselves. On the whole the nine showed again that they could play a steady and sharp up-hill game and deserve the congratulation of the whole college. Below is the score :
