8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
By taking every advantage of Yale's errors, and by opportune hitting, the Freshman baseball team closed a successful season yesterday afternoon by defeating the Yale freshmen, 4 to 2. Both teams played creditable ball in the field, but the visiting team was out classed at the bat. McKay pitched and excellent game for the Freshmen, allowing only three hits, striking out seven men, and giving but two bases on balls. After the first inning, when Yale made one run, McKay was invincible and only one man reached second until the ninth, when an error gave one more run to Yale.
Yale started off well in the first inning; with one down, McIntyre doubled to right field, Minot just missing the ball. Reilly then drove a liner over second which Rogers in centre field let pass him. The run was scored and Reilly reached second. The next man was passed, but McKay then braced and struck out the following batter, while Daily fouled for the third out. Harvard secured the lead in the second after two were out, on singles by Hann and McKay and three base on balls, the last two of which forced in two runs. In the fifth Roger's single, the second baseman's error, and Minot's timely hit scored another run; while Harvard's last run came in the seventh on Reilly's error, and when the right fielder dropped McLaughlin's long bit. Yale's last score, in the ninth, was caused by McLaughlin's misjudging of Reilly's flly, which allowed the latter to make third and come in on a fielder's choice. McKay ended the game by striking out Lilley.
