UNIVERSITY NINE LOST TO SUPERIOR ELI TEAM

In its second game of the triangular baseball series, the University was defeated, 5 to 0, by Yale on Soldiers Field Saturday. Ten hits and five errors combined to make the Eli total, while the University was unable to touch Talcott for more than two safe hits.

Yale's first score was made in the third inning. With two out, Gordon singled, stole second on a passed ball and scored on Gage's hit. In the fifth Holmes singled over second, went to third base on two successive, passed balls, and scored the second run when Prann hit through the pitcher.

In the seventh, two more scores resulted. Holmes again hit safely, stealing second shortly after. A Texas leaguer back of second by Prann, which L. B. Evans '20, in centre field, let slip, allowed Holmes to score. A fielder's choice placed Prann on third, from which he reached home when Gordon's grounder passed through J. G. Coolidge '20, at first base. Lyman, the Yale captain, scored the final tally in the eighth.

The University's best chance to score was in the third inning, when T. H. Gammack '20 singled to centre field and reached third, only to be left there when R. P. Hallowell '20 was thrown out at first. Throughout the game Captain R. E. Gross '19 at shortstop, J. H. Ward '18 in left field, and Coolidge on first were the University's strongest players.
