Bob Wolcott and Ira, Godin both pitched three-hitters here yesterday afternoon. Unfortunately, Wolcott's team (Princeton)) bunched two of its in the first inning and blanked Godin's team (Harvard) 1 to 0.
The loss was the Crimson's first in Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League play and leaves Dartmouth in sole possession of first place.
Godin got off to a shaky start and the Tigers lost no time in nicking him for the only run of the game. Captain George Kepler and Karl Gerber singled to center field. On an attempted sacrifice bunt by Jim Fairchild, Godin threw to third in an effort to force Kepler.
However the throw was late and the bases were loaded. On the next play. Walt Armstrong hit into a double play while Kepler scored. The Princeton run didn't look very big at that time, as Goding quickly settled down and pitched fine ball for the rest of the game. He allowed one more single and struck out ten. The visitors never threatened again.
Woicott Strong in Clutch
But the run grew bigger as the game went on. Harvard touched Wolcott's fancy curve ball for just three hits--two of them by Herbie Neal--and only four base-runners reached second. Three infield outs and a strikeout quelled these "threats."
Wolcott is probably the best pitcher Harvard has faced this season. Besides his tricky curve ball, he showed fine control and more than adequate speed. He even picked a man off first.
This afternoon, the Crimson travels to Northeastern in quest of its fourth triumph of the campaign. Either lefty Barry Turner of Ralph Hyman, who stopped the Huskies last year, will pitch, and the rest of the lineup will remain the same.
Yesterday's box score: *Struck out for Moffle in ninth.
