YALE 1908 WON BASEBALL

The Freshman baseball team was defeated by the Yale freshmen Saturday afternoon at New Haven by the score of 4 to 1.

The defeat was due rather to inability to make safe hits than to any superior work by the Yale pitcher. The Freshmen played a good fielding game and gave strong support to Lincoln, who was hit freely. The Freshmen's only run was scored in the second inning by McNeil on a base on balls, and Mercer's error. The Yale freshmen scored two runs in the third inning. Lang got a hit, stole second, and scored on Wendell's error. Madden got his base on balls, stole second, and came in on Stanley's two-base hit. In both the fourth and seventh innings the Yale freshmen scored a run by good hitting. The feature of the game was a fast double play from Fischel to Wendell. Dines, the Yale second baseman, played a brilliant game.
