8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports

FIRST YEAR NINE BEATS TUFTS FRESHMEN 10 TO 4

W. B. WOOD '32 DISPLAYS BEST ALL AROUND ABILITY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The first-year nine captured its second win of the season yesterday afternoon on Soldiers Field when it buried the Tufts Freshmen under a 10 to 4 score. F. O. White '32 had complete mastery of the opposing batters, excepting in the fifth inning, when four successive hits netted a brace of runs. The Crimson moundsmen received almost flawless support.

Hatch, the visitors' twirler, was pounded mereilessly in the first, second, and seventh innings, in which frames Harvard scored all of its ten runs. W. B. Wood '32 drove in two runs in the initial frame with a long triple. From this point on the home team was never headed.

It gathered three more in the next inning on four singles bunched with two infield errors. Only one hit and no runs were recorded in the next four frames, but in the seventh an avalanche of hits netted five tallies and clinched the game.

W. B. Wood '32 was again the individual luminary. He got two singles and a three-ply blow out of five trips to the plate, and accepted nine chances in the field without a miscue.

The score by innings:   1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  R  H  E Tufts 1932  0  0  1  0  2  0  0  1  0--4  6  6 Harvard 1932  2  3  0  0  0  0  5  0  x--10  12  2
