Costly errors at critical times were chiefly responsible for the second baseball team's 9 to 7 defeat at the hands of the Tufts Freshman nine in the opening game of the second team season on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. The Harvard team did not hit its stride until after the sixth inning, but its seven run rally at this time was not sufficient to overcome the commanding lead held by the visitors. Save for a disastrous fifth inning, the Tufts hits were kept well scattered throughout the game.
The feature of the game was the excellent batting of K.W. Crotty '30 who poked out four hits in five times at bat. Of the rest of the team H.L. Huxtable '30 and D.F. Davis '30 got three hits each in five times to the plate. In the seventh period Davis was responsible for a run when he knocked out a two bagger, and was driven home by C.P. Atherton ocC, who followed with another double.
