The second baseball team will play its initial game of the season today against the strong Phillips Exeter Academy team at Exeter, N. H. The seconds have had short time to organize, and there will probably be several shifts in the line-up before the end of the game.
Out of four contests Exeter has suffered but one defeat, losing to Cambridge Latin in the first game of the season by the score of 4 to 1. Since then, Exeter has downed Tilton Seminary, Brown Freshmen, and Hebron Academy, winning in each case by overwhelming margins. The nine has been built around six letter men, who are Captain Macaulay, Adams, Burns, Walber, Brackett, and Stone.
The seconds have not yet been tried in a regular game, but they showed up unexpectedly well against the first team on Monday, although they felt the lack of substitute pitchers. Coach Campbell will probably start Herrmann on the mound, though it is doubtful whether he will be kept in through the whole contest so soon after seven innings against the University nine.
