Georgetown 9—Dartmouth 5

Coach Tesreau's brand new Dartmouth baseball team came out of its cage in the north to make its first outdoor appearance in Washington April 1 and received the short end of a 9 to 5 score in a rather loosely played game. To the Green, however, went the honor of scoring the first .run when Dagostino scored after a single, a pass to Coller, and Hyman's wild throw of a sharp grounder by Maynard. Coller also scored in the opening frame. The southern batsmen evened the count in their half of the inning, Sheridan and Cunningham singling while Sheedy walked and Murphy sacrificed. Georgetown scored twice more in the third inning and Dartmouth in the fourth. In the seventh inning Tracy, pitching for Dartmouth, was replaced by Burbank who failed to hold the Georgetown men in check five runs being scored off his delivery in the last two innings. The Green team made a bid in the final session but when things looked brightest hit into a fast double play that choked the rally. Maynard, at shortstop, played fast ball for Dartmouth accepting six chances in the field and hitting safely three times in his five trips to the plate, once for two bases. Smith also annexed a double. For Georgetown Murphy's home run, Sheedy's single and triple, Florence's pair of doubles and a brace of singles by Sheridan and Adams featured the attack. Hyman, of Georgetown struck out six men.

Home runs by Shaneman and Maynard featured Dartmouth's defeat of Maryland State at Baltimore, April 3. After the home team had held a three run lead during the opening frames Dartmouth rallies in the fifth and sixth innings drove Nibet from the mound and netted eight tallies.

Catholic University 2—Dartmouth 1

Mark Jackson, Catholic University's star southpaw won a tenth inning decision from Dartmouth at Washington, April 4 in a sparkling game. Jackson struck out ten of the Green sluggers and allowed but five widely scattered hits throughout the afternoon. Dartmouth scored first in the fourth frame when Shapleigh sent Maynard across the plate. The Washington team evened the count in the fifth inning and from that time on the game was tight and fast until Seavey threw wild to third in the tenth inning allowing the winning run to score. Dagostino turned in the fielding gem of the afternoon when he made a spectacular catch which cut off a home run. He retired from the game in the sixth inning after he sprained his ankle in a slide for second. Lyons, of Dartmouth allowed but four hits but was a trifle wild.

Navy 10—Dartmouth 2

The Annapolis midshipmen playing an errorless game of ball and wielding powerful bats had little difficulty in suppressing the Hanover outfit by a 10 to 2 score. Again the Dartmouth men were met by first class pitching, Midshipman Kelly striking out eleven men and allowing but six hits. Hard hitting in the first and fifth innings were responsible for most of the Navy tallies, triples by McKee and Hederean figuring prominently in the scoring. For Dartmout Coller and Maynard also annexed triples but these, however, were not so fruitful as nautical variety. Caswell, of the Hanover team, carried off the fielding honors by reason of a sensational gloved hand catch of Barchett s long drive.

Naval Base 7—Dartmouth 5

The Hampton Roads Naval Base team outpointed Dartmouth .at all times at Norfolk, April 6 sending the Green team down to a 7 to 5 defeat. Britt whose errors were responsible for two of Dartmouth's runs redeemed himself by a triple when the bases were clogged in the sixth inning. A ninth inning' Dartmouth rally which netted two runs failed to reach the lead of the sailor team. Burbank and Steinhilber, for Dartmouth, each fanned five of the Navy sluggers but were ineffective in the pinches of the two innings in which the naval bats were swinging hardest.

Dartmouth 10—Naval Base 6

The day following the defeat at Norfolk the Dartmouth team turned the tables on the Naval Base team to the extent of a 10 to 6 score in a game featured by hard hitting. Shapleigh and Shaneman each gathered two hits for Dartmouth while Thurston was the only member of the team to be denied a safe blow. Seavey's three base hit for Dartmouth, a two base hit by Harkey and a home run by White, both of the Navy team, were the items in the extra base account.

Pennsylvania 6—Dartmouth 5

In a vain endeavor to win from the University of Pennsylvania nine coach Tesreau's Dartmouth team forced the Quakers to six extra innings before succumbing by the one run margin of a 6 to 5 score. The game was one of the longest ever played on Franklin Field. The Green team scored twice in the. second inning and held the Pennsylvania team scoreless until the fourth frame in which the Red and Blue obtained its first counter. The fifth inning saw heavy firing on the part of both teams, Dartmouth annexing two more runs and Pennsylvania three for a tie at four all. The Quaker team scored again in the seventh inning and the Green in the eighth, but from that time forth the contest was air tight, not a man crossing the plate until the fifteenth frame. Whitehill opened the closing round with a sharp single, was sacrificed to second and took third on a fielder's choice. From the third cushion he was enabled to score by means of a costly error on the part of Shapleigh. Both Yadusky, for Pennsylvania, and Lyons, for Dartmouth went the whole distance on the mound, the former allowing eleven hits and striking out two men while the Dartmouth hurler allowed but eight safe blows and fanned four men. Lyons, however, allowed five passes to his opponent's two. For Pennsylvania Whitehill and Sullivan led the attack with two hits apiece, the latter scoring three runs. Mahaffy and Yadusky contributed two-base blows. For Dartmouth Caswell performed spectacularly at the bat, banging out five singles and a double in his seven attempts. Seavey also contributed a two sacker. Pennsylvania had the advantage in the field where Sullivan's two miscues and errors by Goldblatt and Liebegott were less harmful than the three errors charged to Shapleigh and the one to Maynard.

Holy Cross 10—Dartmouth 3

A fatal first inning in which after two men were out the home team scored nine runs completely submerged the Green team in its contests with Holy Cross at Worcester, April 19. Lyon, who started on the mound for Dartmouth, was greeted with a fusilade of hits producing six runs. Steinhilber, who replaced him was unable to stem the tide of runs until three more had counted chiefly by reason of wavering support. Horan, the Holy Cross twirler, went the nine inning distance in splendid form and without exerting himself struck out nine men and allowed but six hits. Steinhilber was touched for but three safe blows after the first inning had been weathered. A home run by Martin, and two base hits by Dugan and Gagnon featured the Worcester team's day at the bat. For Dartmouth Shapleigh and Maynard each collected a two-sacker for Dartmouth.
