FIFTEENTH VICTORY FOR NINE

The University baseball team overwhelmed the Amherst nine on Soldiers Field last Saturday afternoon by scoring a total of 16 runs to a single tally by the visitors. This marked the fifteenth victory out of sixteen games played by the Harvard team this season.

Frye pitched the first six innings for Harvard after which he was relieved by Hitchcock. Both pitched in championship form and at no time in the contest were the Amherst batters able to solve their deliveries, securing a total of only three hits. The fielding feature of the day was a catch by Swasey of Clark's hard hit fly to deep centre in the seventh. Clark excelled at the bat, securing four hits out of five times at bat.

Amherst Throws Game in First.

After two were out in the first, Harvard scored eight runs. These were the results of singles by Clark; Frye and Mahan and five errors by Amherst. In the second Clark singled and stole second. He went to third on a passed ball and scored on Ayres's three-bagger. Harvard secured four more in the third on two singles, a double, an out and two errors. The final two were made in the eight. Ayres singled and scored on Milholland's three-bagger. The latter scored on Hitchcock's sacrifice.
