Predictions on the outcome of a baseball game are energies misdirected. The result of the first game of the Yale series today is as uncertain as anything could be. Yale has played excellent baseball in its recent games and has proved a better hitting team throughout the season than the University nine. Since the second Brown game, Harvard has played remarkable ball except against Holy Cross last Saturday, when neither team lived up to its reputation and Harvard won the game on their opponents' errors.
The game promises to be a pitchers' battle, and that being the case, the chances are slightly in favor of the University team, as Harvard's pitching staff is in better shape than Yale's. Hartford's work in the Cornell game was above criticism and there is no reason why it cannot be repeated. Coupled with a little of the batting and base-running ability shown in the Dartmouth game, such pitching will win any game.
