BASEBALL
JUNE 1906

The College baseball season, although not rich in victories, was nevertheless creditable. Dartmouth won fifteen games, tied one, and lost fourteen. Handicapped by the late spring, which afforded little opportunity for outdoor practice, the team lost all four games of the first trip. With two weeks' practice, however, the team did great work on its second trip, defeating Harvard and Brown. Then came the long series of home games, with victories over Holy Cross, Vermont, Williams and Tufts. The next trip was disastrous from the standpoint of victories, the team losing to Princeton, Williams, Andover, Holy Cross, and Amherst, and winning only from Seton Hall and Fordham ; and the last trip of the season brought defeats from Wesleyan and Yale.

Weak batting may justly be said to have been the team's weak point this season. Strong on the defensive, it was very weak on the offensive; it could save games, but could not win them. Seldom does a team so conclusively illustrate how useless star pitchers are if they are not fortified by strong batsmen. . The large number of games lost by one or two scores proves that Skillin and Glaze received little or no support at the bat. In the Williams, Andover, Holy Cross, Amherst, Wesleyan and Yale games, Dartmouth scored in only one of fifty-eight consecutive innings. Captain O'Brirnen was a good leader, but his team could not hit.

A brief summary of the season follows:

Two DEFEATS AT ITHACA

Dartmouth opened the season with two defeats at the hands of Cornell at Ithaca, April 10 and II. The first game was easy for the Ithacans, who found Black for twelve hits including two triples, and who easily kept Dartmouth from crossing the home plate. The second game was closely contested, Hazelton's muff of a high fly in center field in the twelfth inning giving Cornell a 3 to 2 victory. McDevitt made two hits in each game. The summaries :

HOLY CROSS 8, DARTMOUTH O

Holy Cross hit Glaze hard in Worcester, April 14, and found little difficulty in winning the first of the series with Dartmouth by the score of 8 to o. The heavy hitters of the Worcester college clinched their victory in the first inning, and thereafter were able to find the ball when necessary to produce a run. Hoey, the heavy-hitting left fielder of Holy Cross, made four clean drives, McDevitt made two hits for the fourth successive time, and Richardson's work at short was excellent. The summary :

Innings 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Holy Cross 4 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 x—8 Hits—Holy Cross 11, Dartmouth 3. Errors —Holy Cross 1, Dartmouth 2. Batteries-Hogarty and Carrigan, Glaze and McDevitt.

DARTMOUTH 13, NORWICH O

In the first Hanover game, April 21, Dartmouth shut out Norwich University 13 to o. Glaze struck out thirteen men and allowed only five hits. The summary :

Innings 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Dartmouth 1 0 0 2 0 4 0 6 x—13 Hits—Dartmouth 11, Norwich 5. Errors—Dartmouth 2, Norwich, 11. Batteries—Glaze and Main, Oram and Cole.

DARTMOUTH I, BROWN O

Dartmouth defeated Brown 1 to o in a spectacular game in Providence, April 25. With Skillin in the game pitching in his old-time form, Dartmouth played with great confidence, and superior pitching and perfect fielding were a combination which Brown could not break up. Skillin kept the Brunonians from making the semblance of a hit, struck out thirteen men, and gave only one base. Raymond, who drew this gift, was the only man to reach first during the game, and he was promptly thrown out in an attempt to steal. Tift, also, pitched great ball, holding Dartmouth to three hits. His support, however, failed him in the fifth, when Dartmouth won the game. Driscoll opened this inning by reaching first on Dickinson's error, Richardson and Main struck out. Driscoll hit safely, advancing McDane to second. Then Page hit to center for two bases, and McL,ane crossed the plate with the winning run. The score :

VICTORY OVER HARVARD

Dartmouth won a clean-cut victory over Harvard at Cambridge, April 28, by the score of 3 to 1. Skillin held Harvard to live hits, three of which were scratches. With speed, curves, a vicious cross-fire, and good headwork, he held Harvard safe at all times. Green also pitched good ball, but his support was not so good as Skillin's was. Dartmouth scored in the first inning on a base on balls to O'Brien, a steal, McDevitt's out, and Stephenson's poor throw to Leonard. Harvard filled the bases in the third, but clever pitching and fielding prevented scoring. Page scored for Dartmouth in the sixth on his base on balls, and hits by McDevitt and Gardiner. Both teams scored in the ninth. With one out, Richardson singled, went to second on a passed ball, and .scored on McCall's bad error off Main. Dartmouth then filled the bases, but no scores resulted. In Harvard's half, Dexter fanned, Harvey singled and stole second, and McCarty hit for two bases, scoring Harvey. Skillin then struck out Simons and Leonard. The score :

DARTMOUTH 3, HOLY CROSS O

INEUGIBLES WON

A team composed of ineligibles defeated the College team, May 9, in an interesting game. The work of Tortes, Schildmiller, and Turner of the ineligibles, and Driscoll of the regulars was excellent. The regulars made only two hits off Beckett and not once gave the ineligibles serious opposition. The summary:

Two. VICTORIES OVER ROCHESTER

Dartmouth won two easy victories over Rochester 011 the Alumni Oval, May 11 and 12. Both games were marked by heavy hitting by the home team and loose fielding by the visitors. Glaze deserved a shut-out in the first, and Hazelton pitched strong ball in the second. The summaries :

-DARTMOUTH 4, BROWN 4

Dartmouth and Brown played a fast ten-inning game between showers 011 the Alumni Oval, May 16, darkness finally putting an end to the game, at 7.15 o'clock. Both Skillin and Tift did good work in the box, but the former easily excelled. Brown made seven hits to Dartmouth's eleven, while ten strike outs were recorded to Skillin and only three to Tift. Dartmouth began the run-getting in the third, when Driscoll's single, Page's sacrifice, McDevitt's single, and Gardiner's triple to right center netted two earned runs. Brown secured its first run in the next inning, when Jones drew a pass, went to second and third on two infield outs, and scored on Main's passed ball. The eighth brought plenty of excitement. Skillin's error off Hoye, a sacrifice, and successive singles by Tift, Raymond, and Dickinson, netted three runs and gave Brown the lead 4 to 2. Dartmouth tied the score, however, in the last half of the inning. With two out, Skillin hit safely, and Richardson was given a life on Raymond's error. McL,ane then scored both men with a pretty hit over third. The score :

AMHERST 2, DARTMOUTH I

Amherst defeated Dartmouth in a fast errorless game on the Alumni Oval, May 19, by the score of 2 to 1.

Amherst scored its first run on Main's throw to second with a runner on third, and its second on Shattuck's single which passed McDevitt. Skillin's triple and Page's single produced Dartmouth's only run. McDevitt opened the last half of the ninth with a three-bagger, but was out at the plate on Skillin's stab to Storke. The summary :
