In six innings yesterday afternoon Harvard defeated the Matthews by a score of 14 to 1. The game was too one-sided to be interesting, but from the point of view of a Harvard supporter it was most encouraging, owing to the way in which our men hit the ball and ran bases. Nineteen hits with a total of twenty-nine bases in six innings is pretty good batting, even off as poor a pitcher as Smith, and yesterday the hits came in at just the right time, and eleven out of the fourteen runs were earned. In the third inning three hits with a total of six, and two steals brought in three earned runs, while in the fourth, eight with a total of twelve, and three more steals, earned six more. And not only did the men hit perfectly freely, but they ran bases with unusual dash, making the most of almost every opportunity; once, however, with two men out, Frothingham was not sent away from first on Hovey's hit into the air which proved good for two bases, the consequence of which was that Frothingham was left on third when he might have scored. But with this exception, the base running was exactly what it should have been, just short of reckless.

Highlands started in to pitch the game and in two innings he had struck out three men, caught one man off first and two men had flied out, one to centre and one to left. In the last of the second, however, he wrenched his knee slightly, in trying to get back to first, and Bates came in to take his place. Bates proved a complete puzzle, but one hit being made off him, and five men striking out in the next four innings.

The Matthews, only run was made on McCarthy's life through Cook's wild throw to first, (stopped by pretty backing up by Frothingham), a base on balls to Roach, a wild pitch, and a questionable decision which allowed McCarthy to score on Ryan's sacrifice.

The feature of the game was Corbett's batting.
