The first base ball trip ended in the defeat of the Middies at
Annapolis, April 18th, in a well-played game by a score of i-o.
A high wind is responsible for the scarcity of hits, of which there
were only four. State had two errors, against three for the Navy.
Rohrbach reached first on balls in the opening, and State seem
ed to have a chance for a run,' but Miller and Mcllveen struck
out and Sharpe flew out to right field. Smith was first up for
the Navy, and he hit hard to center. The wind was too strong
and the ball fell short. Both Sharpe and Elder called Rohrbach,
but he could not reach it, and Sharpe in his efforts got a heavy
fall. This gave the Middies their only hit.
Until the sixth inning neither side thought of scoring, but here
Bradley drew a base on balls and went to second on a passed ball.
Rohrbach struck out and Miller was given a pass to first, where
Rohrbach took his place. Sharpe, on second delivery, hit a hot
liner between first and.second, and Rohrbach, not seeing, ran into
it. Bradley was held on second. Mcllveen sent a rapid grounder
through third baseman and Bradley scored. In the eighth Huber
captured two difficult flies, picking one from the laps of the spec
tators. The score :-
