The nine easily defeated Pennsylvania on Saturday afternoon by the score of 8-0 in a poorly-played game. Only five Pennsylvania men reached first, four of them on errors, while only one safe hit was made off Paine. Neither pitcher gave a base on balls and neither made a wild pitch. The failure of Pennsylvania to score was due largely to the steady, aggressive pitching of Paine, who was unusually effective when men were on bases, two of his five strike-outs being made at critical times. Brown, on the other hand, was found for eleven hits and struck out only one man, though for four innings he held Harvard down to a single. Stevenson led the batting list with three hits, while Rand was second with two, one of which was a three-bagger.

Although both teams made the same number of errors, Pennsylvania's were all costly while Harvard twice prevented Pennsylvania from scoring after errors had allowed men to reach third. With the exception of a wild throw to first, Dean played in fine form, accepting seven chances. Aside from two neat double plays made by Harvard, there was no particularly brilliant fielding. Rand's base-running was one of the features of the game.

Harvard started the run-getting in the first inning when Rand, on being hit by the pitcher, went to first, stole second, and scored on the throw to catch Beale stealing second.

No more runs were made until the fifth, when singles by Dean, Stevenson and Haughton and Rand's triple, assisted by Pennsylvania's loose playing, netted five runs.

In the sixth, two more runs were added to the score after Chandler struck out and Paine flied to left field. Rand hit safely to center and stole second, scoring later, by good base-running, on Haughton's single. Haughton reached second, when Rand scored and was brought in on Lynch's single. Lynch made the third out in attempting to steal second.

The score follows:
