Freshmen Lost to Andover, 4 to 3

The Freshman baseball team was defeated for the first time this season in a close and exciting game against Andover Academy at Andover yesterday afternoon by the score of 4 to 3.

Brown, who recently held the Yale University team down to two runs, pitched for Andover. He was not up to his best form, however, and in the second inning the Freshmen drew three clean hits, a triple, a double, and a single, scoring two runs. They retained their lead until the sixth inning when Andover secured three runs by timely hits off Babson. Both teams scored again in the ninth. The Freshmen hit better than expected but their fielding was ragged.

The summary follows:

Earned runs--Harvard 1912 3, Andover 3. Left on bases--Harvard 1912 2, Andover 9. Two-base hits--Potter, Campbell. Three-base hit--Winston. Sacrifice hits--Kennedy, Potter, E. Burdett, T. Thompson, G. Thompson. Stolen bases--Kennedy, Desha, G. Thompson 2. Double plays--Brown to T. Burdett to E. Burdett. Bases on balls--By Babson 1. Struck out--By Babson 4, by Brown 6. Hit by pitched ball--G. Thompson. Umpire--Whitman. Time--1H., 50m.
