Defeating the Georgetown nine by an 11 to 3 count yesterday afternoon, the University baseball team chalked up its third victory in succession and twelfth of the season. Harvard went on a five-run scoring rampage in the opening inning and had matters well in hand throughout the contest.
Coach Mitchell sent W. K. Page '31 to the mound and the port-sided hurler performed creditably in his intercollegiate baseball debut. He allowed but six scattered hits, forcing the Hilltoppers to bingle harmlessly to the infield for easy outs.
The Crimson batters tallied five runs in their half of the initial frame. Nugent walked, McGrath flied out, and Donaghy singled, sending the diminutive lead-off man to third. The Harvard captain stole to the key-stone sack just before Ticknor was handed a free pass to first. Whitney then banged out a safety, scoring Nugent. The next play produced two more runs. Gilligan poked a grounder at pitcher White whose throw home to cut off Donaghy went wide of its mark, letting in the third baseman and Ticknor, while Gilligan scampered to the hot corner. He subsequently stole home when White offered the batter a slow ball.
After going scoreless for four innings, Harvard garned six more tallies during its three final innings at bat. Shoddy baseball by the Hilltoppers and concerted bat work on the offerings of two relief twirlers gave the Crimson its markers.
