Yale Wins In Tenths As Parson, Cantwell Starred
Yale edged Georgetown 5 to 4 at Georgetown Field in ten innings after a costly fielding display by both sides. Parsons pitched effectively for Yale, fanning ten, while Cantwell allowed several runs but also pitched well with support. The game featured loose fielding, three Yale unearned runs, and a late rally by Yale culminating in a walkoff-like finish as Smith scored on a third strike miscue and Jones reached on a pitcher’s error.
