PRINCETON, 6; HARVARD, 7.

Two years ago the Princeton nine was defeated in a 13 inning game. Yesterday it took 14 innings to accomplish the same result.

Fully 10,000 spectators watched the game, of whom nearly 6,000 were upon the grounds. The excitement was intense, and the cheering was continuous towards the end of the game.

Game was called promptly at 3. Princeton went to the bat, but failed to score in spite of a splendid three-base hit which Blossom drove to centre field. Harvard was more fortunate, and opened matters briskly enough by earning three runs on singles by Phillips and Willard, and doubles by Smith and Nichols.

One, two, three order marked the disposal of the batsmen of both nines in the second inning. The third, however, netted two more runs for the crimson, brought in on hits by Phillips and Nichols, an error, a base on balls, and a steal.

Princeton found the ball in the fourth inning, and rolled up three runs, two of them earned, on a base on balls, a single by Blossom, and a home run by Reynolds, aided by two successful steals.

Harvard failed to hit safely, or score, in the fourth, fifth, and sixth innings. Princeton, on the other hand, added a run to its score in the fifth, on two errors, a steal, and a wild pitch; while it repeated the operation in the sixth, by the aid of Bickham's home run. The fourth inning had proved disastrous for the orange and black, however, for Brownlee broke a finger, and was forced to yield his place behind the bat to Shaw, while King took Shaw's place at right field.

The seventh inning found the score even up on five runs. Edgerly hit sharply to Taylor, who did not accept the chance, and a put out, an error, and Wiestling's hit brought in Harvard's sixth run. Harvard now drew blanks for six consecutive innings, though four hits were made in that time, and five men were left on bases.

Princeton, after failing to score in the seventh and eighth, brought in the much-coveted run in the ninth, on a terrible wild throw by Phillips and a passed ball by Allen.

The excitement became intense. Both nines were nerved up to their best, and batsmen were retired in quick order. The spectators held their breath as one nine after the other strove to bat out a run. Harvard proved the more fortunate, and in the fourteenth inning won the game. Wiestling hit safely, made a daring steal to second, took third on a wild pitch, and scored the seventh and winning run on Smith's drive to right field.

The scene that ensued was worthy the victory; a thousand men rushed upon the field, and the members of the nine were borne upon their shoulders to the gymnasium, where each was honored with nine rousing cheers.

The game was a magnificent exhibition of base-ball. Both nines played sharply, and both batted heavily at times. Both Nichols and Bickham pitched effectively, while Allen, Brownlee, and Shaw played steadily behind the bat. Phillips and Edgerly made brilliant stops, and the outfield of both nines played steadily.

The score is appended.

PRINCETON.
