The 1919 baseball team suffered an unexpectedly heavy setback at the hands of Phillips-Exeter Academy, on Soldiers Field, last Saturday afternoon, in a game which resulted in a score of 17 to 2 in favor of the visitors.

In the first inning an error on a pop fly was responsible for Exeter's one run during the inning. The Freshmen went completely to pieces in the second inning, and Exeter tallied six times on a combination of five hits, and a wild pitch. Four runs in the third practically determined the final outcome, six more runs bringing the total to 17.

The following is the summary: Innings,  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  r.  h.  e. Exeter,  1  6  4  0  0  1  2  0  3  17  19  4 Harvard 1919,  0  0  2  0  0  0  0  0  0  2  8  7

The second baseball team was defeated by Phillips-Andover Academy at Andover last Saturday afternoon, by the score of 5 to 2. Wilson, Andover's pitcher, although inclined to be a bit wild at times, pitched very effective ball, holding his opponents to five hits and striking out 10 men. Andover's stick-work totalled 13 hits.
