Princeton won its series with Harvard last Saturday by defeating the nine in the second game by a score of 9 to 2. From a Princeton standpoint it was a good game, but to Harvard it was discouraging, to say the least.
After the first defeat at Princeton it was expected that the men would brace up and play good ball, but a Harvard team has seldom shown poorer form in a big game than the nine last Saturday. Not only was the batting and fielding weak, but the men were listless and on several occasions showed the poorest kind of judgment in the handling of hits and in backing up the bases.
McCornick was entirely ineffective against the Princeton batters and was so wild that seven runs had been scored before he was taken out of the box. His place was taken out of the box. His place was taken by Cozzens, who pitched a steady game, and was hardly responsible for Princeton's two additional runs. Reid caught his usual good game, and he and Robinson did most of Harvard's batting.
