The freshmen more than had their revenge Saturday for the defeat which Yale '94 administered to them in Cambridge. They went to New Haven far from confident. Here Yale played a better game than Harvard and the score seemed hardly an index of the character of the two nines. The only hope for a victory in New Haven seemed to be in the change of pitchers which had taken place on both sides. This change certainly did contribute much to the triumph of Saturday, but the remarkable improvement which our team showed in every particular would have probably been sufficient to gain the day without it. The freshmen played with snap and confidence, showing no tendency to go to pieces or to lose their heads on the strange ground. A very small contingent of Harvard men went down to see the game, but those who did go cheered lustily and helped not a little to win the day.
Dickinson pitched a good, steady game throughout, though his throwing to bases was poor. He was finely supported by Corbett, whose throwing to second was surprisingly accurate. With Lowell's efficient aid he kept the Yale men down to one stolen base. In the field Quigley covered himself with glory by his quick stops and accurate throws to first. At the bat Lowell led with three hits and a sacrifice. Mackie, Frothingham and Quigley also did good work. The batting was intelligent, the men being willing and able to sacrifice at the right time. In this respect the game was a marked contrast to the one played here. After it became evident that Frambach was not going to puzzle the Harvard men, Kedzie was put in the box, but did not prove much better. The Yale team as a whole did not field cleanly, and evidently did not feel confidence in their pitchers after the first few innings.
The score:
HARVARD '94.
