2 nn eee a LE SENT LL A RIB BT SESS TES SES Ee SS SS THE BASEBALL WEEK, Changes in the Battery—General Im- provement Shown. —_—__—_ Several changes have been made in the battery of the University nine since the last issue of the Weekly. bx $. Goodwin, 1900, who was considered un- able to play this season. owing to some trouble with his heart, has finally been allowed by his physician to try for a position behind the bat. His work so far has been very satisfactory, and he is expected tod remain with the team during the rest of the season. FH. 4, deForest, ’97, has also returned to the training table, having recovered from an injury to his hand. Yale’s two most successful pitchers, Greenway, 98S., and Fearey, °98, have been obliged to give up playing for the pres- ent at least. The former has gone to the mountains owing to ill health, where it is hoped he will fully recover and be able to rejoin the team within a week or ten days. Fearey was badly spiked in the Wesleyan game, and though the injury is on his left hand, he will nevertheless be prevented from playing for a week or more. Hamlin, M. S., and Hecker, ’99, will represent Yale in the box in the mean time. YALE, 8; LAFAYETTE, 11. The University Nine was defeated by the Lafayette team at the Field, Wednesday, May 5, by the score of tt to 8. The game was won by the ability of Lafayette to make hits and the mis- fortune of Yale to make costly errors at critical points. This was the case in both the second and fourth innings, when five and four runs respectively were scored by the visitors. Fearey and Hamlin occupied the box for Yale. The former allowed eight hits during five innings, struck out six men and gave four men bases on balls. The lat- ter was very effective at times and did very good work considering the fact that it was his first trial in the box for this year. Both pitchers were er- ratic and wild at times. he Yale team as a whole fielded well, their errors being few, though costly, and their work at the bat was good and steady, but their hits did not come at the right times. Reed, Greenway and Camp led at the bat for Yale, and Fincke, Greenway and Reed in the field. Fincke’s catch. of a high foul fly close to the bleachers was the feature of the game. The score: Yale. ip, 2. UD.

Bartlett behind the bat was some- what bothered by the erratic work of the pitchers. He had several very cost- ly passed balls, however, which gave runs to his opponents. He seems to lose his head at critical points. i op — i | | at = 00 YALE, 10; WESLEYAN, 3. Yale defeated Wesleyan in an unin- teresting game at Middletown Satur- day, May 8, by the score of 10 to 3. The work of both pitchers was very good. Wesleyan lost the game through bad errors made at critical moments. Camp and Keator did the best work for Yale in the field, and Camp and Wallace at the bat. Townsend and Yaw did the best work for Wesleyan. | Keator made a sensational catch of a VALE ALUMNI WHEKLY short fly to center field, when he was playing far back. By hard running and a dive forward at the right moment he caught the ball and held it, although he brought up finally at full length on the ground. Fearey was quite severely spiked on the left hand in the third inning and will be put out of the game for several days in consequence. The score: Yale. a:b. r. 1b. p.0. a8. Keaton ets st. O00 .4.

The University Nine played the third game of the season against the Univer- sity of Virginia at the Field, Tuesday, May 11, and won by the score of 5 to 4. This gives Yale two victories. Yale outplayed her opponents in all but the eighth inning. Her fielding was very clean and sharp. In batting she was far ahead of the visitors. Hecker pitched the first eight innings and- allowed but three hits. ened, however, towards the last and by three bases on balls and a sharp hit through Letton, Virginia scored three runs. Hamlin took the box in the ninth. Goodwin played a good game behind the bat for Yale. He had no passed balls and threw well to bases. His batting was weak. Two new men appeared on the field, Farnham, ’97 S., in left field, and Bronson, the Freshman short stop, who took Reed’s place at second. Both filled their positions well, and the for- mer proved a strong man at the bat, The feature of the game was a three base hit by Letton with two men on bases. | Summary.—Base hits, Virginia 3, Yale 8, Errors, Virginia, 2, Yale, 2. Struck out, by Collier (U. of Va.), 11, by Hecker 3, by Hamlin 2. - Bases on balls, off Col- lier 3, off Hecker 4, off Hamlin 2. —_—_—__4___———- The Freshmen Lose Twice. The Freshman Nine was defeated by Andover, Wednesday, May 4, at An- dover, by a score of 6 to 2 The game was well played on both sides, except in the second and fourth in- nings, when the Freshmen made a suc- cession of errors, which cost them the game. The pitching’ on both sides was good. The Freshmen proved a little stronger at bat, but lost their heads at critical points. Following is the score by innings: Andover. .2.\: 0 0 2-30 90.9 2 to Yale, 1900.... 0 00010 01 0—2 Summary: Hits, Yale 7, Andover 6; errors, Yale 7, Andover 4; earned runs, 1900 0, Andover 1; two-base hits, Bron- son and Lyon; bases stolen, 1900 1, An- dover 2; bases on balls, off Whittlesey 1, Stephenson 1, Dunn 1; hit by pitched ball, Barnwell; struck out, by Dunn 4, Whittlesey 2, Stephenson 5; passed balls, Sullivan; wild pitch, Stephenson. At the close of this game, F’.. T. Craw- ford. 1900, was elected permanent cap- tain of the Freshman nine. YALE, 1900, 2; PRINCETON, 1900, 5. The Freshman nine met-the Prince- ton Freshman at the Yale Field, Sat- urday, May 8, and were defated in a very close game by the score of 5 to 2. The game was unusually interest- ing and well played for a Freshman He weaks.. game and up to the seventh inning it was hard to say which side had the advantage. Hillebrand and Dunne had both been pitching very effectively and their suport in the field was very clean and sure. Yale’s scoring was accom- plished in the third inning. With a man on first and second Hillebrand struck out two Yale men. A single by Brown gave Yale her only two runs. In the seventh Princeton made four runs after two men were out through a base on balls, an error and two hits, _ The atendance of the Freshmen was not very large, nor was their cheering very enthusiastic or united. For the Yale Freshmen Sulivan, Bronson and Russell did some fine work in the field, and Bronson and Sullivan led at the bat. Hillebrand, Campbell and Burke did the best work for Princeton.

Negotiations are still being carried on by the University Navy Management, with the Wisconsin rowing authorities regarding the proposed race on May 29. The Western crew desires the race to be rowed at New London and ob- jects to the Freshmen entering the race. It is hoped that these obstacles can be overcome and that all three crews can race either on the Harbor or at Lake Saltonstall. The Yale Management is very desirous of taking the crew to New London, June 1, in order to train there before the race. Satisfactory ar- rangements have not yet been con- cluded with the New London authori- ties. The actual work of the Crew has ad- vanced satisfactorily this week. John Rogers, ’87; Dr: A. J. Hartwell, ’898S.; Sherwood B. Ives, ’93; E. F. Gallaudet, 793, and John Howland, ’94, have been in town and spent several afternoons in the launch. The eight has been over the mile course on time on several oc- casions, and the records made were quite satisfactory. You found about what you wanted with us while you were in New Haven. We have just as good things and better now. And you can get them, wherever you are, A great many of your classmates do. We might men- tion a lot of good names, but you know who our customers were. Well, if you want a-string tie or a wedding outfit, a collar but- ton, a dressing sack, a blanket wrap or a dress suit case, drop us a line. We have, by the way, something mighty pretty in colored shirtings for the spring and summer. You know our address : — CHASE & CO., New Haven House Building. No change has been made in the order of the Crew. In response to an invitation, the Yale second crew will enter the Harlem Re- gatta to be held on Memorial Day. This is the first season that Yale has kept a second crew in training so late in the season, and the new departure of entering it in this regatta has caused considerable interest in the College. Co- lumbia and the University of Pennsyl- vania will also be represented, and a close race is predicted for the one mile stretch. —————_—+0e—_—__ Winners in Columbia Games.
