Yale was again prevented from scoring by Harvard's brilliant playing. Stagg knocked a pop fly to the infleld which dropped in the midst of five Harvard men; Stagg, seeing second uncovered, tried to take more than one base, but was put out, Campbell to Gallivan. McConkey went out on a grounder to short. With two out, Calhoun hit safely to right and stole second. Noyes followed with a beautiful single to centre; Boyden stopped the ball and, by a perfect throw to the plate, shut off Calhoun, who was trying to get home from second on Noyes' hit.

Boyden went out in the seventh on a fly to McConkey, the latter making a very difficult catch. Henshaw flied out to Dann and Stagg struck out Willard.

Yale added one more run to her score in the seventh. With one out, Hunt hit safely to centre and took second and third on Henshaw's missed third strike on McBride. Stewart sent him home on a hit, then stole second, and went to third on Walker's scratch hit in front of the plate. McLean now made the most peculiar decision of the afternoon. Stagg hit a foul to right which Howland captured after a long run. Mc. refused to give him out, claiming not to have seen the catch, However, the inning was closed by Bates' striking out Stagg.

Harvard was easily blanked in the eighth.

For Yale, McConkey and Calhoun struck out. Noyes hit a fly to short right field, which was immediately surrounded by a group of Harvard men. At the last moment, Howland made a grab for the ball but missed it. In the meantime, Noyes was running to second, as no one had thought to cover that base. Campbell picked up the ball and, by good running, reached second before Noyes, retiring the side.

In the ninth, Campbell took his base on balls; went to second on a sacrifice by Gallivan, third on Stagg's wild pitch, but was left by Boyden's strike out.

For Yale, Hunt made a hit, but was thrown out attempting to steal second.
