FRESHMEN DOWNED LYNN TEAM

In a slow and poorly played game the Freshman nine defeated Lynn Classical High School 8 to 5 on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. Neither team displayed good form, and it was only the excellent pitching of Harrison, who relieved Powel in the fourth inning, that saved the day for the Freshmen. The work of W. J. Murray also deserves special mention. In four trips to the plate he made three safe hits, and his work in the field was of the highest order.

After Lynn had scored two runs in their half of the first inning, the Freshmen started in to better this by making three runs. Percy was safe on Murphy's error, and he was advanced to second by Murray's bunt along the first base line. Knowles received a base on balls and both reached home on Enwright's long three-base hit. Enwright scored later on Shepperd's fumble of Boyden's hit. In the sixth the Freshmen again took the lead. After Walker had grounded out, Finn to Shepperd, Anthony drew a base on balls. He went to second on Harrison's hit, and Percy's scratch single filled the bases. Three men came home on a hit by Murray, but he was left on base while Knowles struck out, and Enwright grounded to the pitcher. The final scores were made on errors and hits by Murray and Knowles.
