The Freshman Game.

HARVARD FRESHMEN 10, ROVERS 8.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Last Saturday occurred the Freshmen's first game this season. They played with the Rovers of Brookline who placed a strong nine in the field. The latter won the toss and went to the bat. They were speedily put out however, after gaining three runs. In '90's first innings, two hits and two errors with a base on balls resulted in five runs, none earned. The game from this time was a close one, until the eighth inning, when with two men on bases. Vila made a pretty hit to left field, which with a wild throw let in three runs, which won the game. The game was not remarkable for any brilliant plays, yet was, on the whole, an interesting one. It illustrated the fundamental principle that every freshman nine is prone to weakness at critical points, and that they cannot get too much practice. The batting of the freshmen was fair, but their infield, with the exception of second, was very weak and needs strengthening. The battery work, with the exception of the throwing to bases was good. The following men excelled at the bat: Codman, Bates and McKean. The fielding of Pratt was positively brilliant, while that of Train, Holland and Ponde was good. The freshmen excelled at the bat, but were out-fielded by their opponents. A contingent from '90 accompanied the nine and made their presence known by an occasional cheer. The score.
