1913 WON FROM GROTON

The Freshman baseball team defeated Groton in the first regular game of the season yesterday at Groton by a score of 8 to 4. The game was fast and well played, and the Freshmen showed a great improvement in hitting.

Until the eighth inning, the game seemed safe with a score of 3 to 1. Then, however, Groton rallied and at the end of the inning left the score a tie, 4 to 4. Lowrey started off the ninth inning with a beautiful hit to left field and the three more hits which followed brought in four runs. Groton was unable to reach first base in her half of the inning.
