The Yale freshman opened the game by hitting Baker all over the field, while Hickox kept Harvard down to five hits in as many different innings. Goodwin split his thumbing the third inning and Morse, though stopping fairly, was to tally unable to hold hickox, and missed eight third strikes, and allowed two of them to reach first. Had Hickox been well supported, fifteen men would have been out on strides. The features were the batting of Marsh, Sheppard and Hickox, and the pitching of Hickox and the fielding of Sheppard, Ayer, Hickox, for Yale. The best playing for Harvard was by Wiestling and Litchfield. The throwing of both nines was wild, and Yale stole second on Litchfield regularly. Litchfield, however, did by far the best batting for Harvard. Below is the score:
