The University baseball team will meet the University of Virginia nine on Soldiers Field in the second game of its series with this team today at 4 o'clock. In the first game of the season, played on the southern trip, Harvard won from Virginia, 1 to 0, in a fourteen-inning contest.
Virginia was defeated by the University of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia yesterday, 7 to 1. The Virginia team is now near the end of a long schedule. It is a fairly strong team, but its principal strength is in its two pitchers, E. Brown, formerly of Andover, and Witmer, and unless these men are given good support the nine is likely to make a poor showing. Pennsylvania won two games from Virginia on it southern trip, by the scores of 7 to 3 and to 0. Amherst took two games from Virginia, by 10 to 0 and 16 to 3, and Holy Cross also won, 7 to 2.
E. Brown is expected to pitch again for Virginia today. In the first game he was hit safely ten times, but kept the hits well scattered, and Harvard was only enabled to win on errors. Ernst will probably pitch for Harvard, though Long may be used for a part of the game.
