Ninety-two Wins the Class Championship.
Out-played in every department of the game tells the story of the defeat of the freshman nine yesterday. The game was played on Jarvis Field, and was marked by a noticeable absence of the usual crowd of howling supporters, due no doubt to the fact that an admission fee of twenty-five cents was charged.
Spalding played the greater part of the game for the seniors, holding the freshmen down to five hits, and striking out six men, and making five fielding assists and three put-outs, without an error. Brown played a good game at third, his only error being an excusable fumble of a grounder, and one of his assists being of the star order. Wood played an errorless game at second. Rankin did excellent work at first his, muff of Curtis' difficult throw being his only misplay.
For the freshmen Whittemore and Whiting did good work, though the former fumbled once, and the latter made a screeching wild throw over first when there was no chance of getting his man. Cassatt, at second, made the star plays of the game however, catching an apparently safe hit off Spaulding's bat in short right field, and then making the assist in an easy double play. Rogers played his usual good game at first base, having sixteen put-outs without an error.
The feature of the game was the batting of Wood, Allen, Curtis and Brown for '92, Allen and Curtis each making a hit that brought in an earned run, and Brown making three pretty sacrifices. Phelan and Wadsworth were the only men on the freshman nine that hit the ball with any certainty at all.
The following is the complete score:
