The Freshman baseball team shut out the Cornell freshmen on Saturday afternoon on Soldiers Field by the score of 12 to 0. The Harvard battery, Ernst and Reeves, held Cornell safe at all times; Ernst allowed but five scattered hits and struck out seven men. Foster, the Cornell pitcher, was ineffective, but the high score was due in part to the erratic support given him by his team. Until the seventh inning the game was fairly close. The Freshmen secured two runs in the first inning on a series of stupid errors; two more runs were made, one in the fourth and the other in the sixth, due to timely hitting. In the seventh inning the Freshmen found Foster for a number of safe hits, Including a double and a scratch triple, which, with several errors, brought in eight runs. Hyatt finished the game in the box for the Cornell freshmen and held the Harvard team without a run. The fielding of the Freshmen was exceptionally clean, the only error being made on a very difficult chance. Reeves and Winston played especially well, while Moore did well for the Cornell freshmen.
