====== April 9, 1901 ======

===== News =====

•	The team beat the [[Carteret Athletic Association]] in an exhibtion game today, 23-5

•	Second baseman [[Nap Lajoie]] hit for a super-cycle, getting a single, double, triple, and home run, adding a base on balls, and reached base on an error

•	Lajoie's homer was a mammoth shot to right field and outfielder [[Jack Hayden]] hit one to nearly the same spot

•	[[Bill Bernhard]] started again today, but was a bit wild in his three innings of work and gave up three runs

•	[[Wiley Piatt]] and [[Carson Hodge]] spelled Bernhard on the mound

•	Bad weather had prevented the groundskeeping crew from installing sod in the outfield so the flychasers were playing on bare dirt
