YALE DEFEATED SPRINGFIELD.


 News.
 Yale played a good game, both in the field and at the bat Saturday af- ternoon at Yale field and succeeded in defeating the strong Springfield East ern league ball team to the tune of z to 4.
 Up to the seventh inning the score was tie. Fearey, who was In the box for Yale, had pitched superb game, striking several men out and giving no bases on balls. Korwin pitched a good game for Springfield, but was re- placed by Johnston, who allowed the Yalensians to get several long hits off his delivery. In addition to this there were several costly errors and Yale piled up six runs before three men were out. In Springfeld's half of the inning five men were given their bases on balls by Hecker and with the addi- tion of several lucky hits two runs were scored. Hecker was unusually wild, having no control over the ball and did not pitch more than six strikes. Cadwalader was substituted for him in the eighth inning and one run was made No more scores were made and the game ended in favor of Yale. There was a good crowd of rooters out, and this added to the interest of the game. On the whole the Yale team showed much improvement over the last game before the Easter vacation, having evidently gained much advan- togeus experience on the southern trip.
 It was expected that Whittlesey, a very promising man, would pitch for Yale, but owing to recent illness he did not go in.
