Closing out its first home series in over 1,000 days, the Crimson (13-9, 5-1 Ivy) plated three runs in the bottom of the seventh to pull within two before the rally fell short against the visiting Bears (5-14, 2-4 Ivy). Harvard still took the series, 2-1, after sweeping Saturday's doubleheader, 17-7 and 7-1.

On the mound, Zinn tossed 5.0 innings, allowing two runs on three hits and three walks with 10 strikeouts while sophomore Uday Narottam threw 2.0 innings of scoreless relief with four strikeouts.
 
For the series, Rounds hit .571 (8-for-14) with five RBIs, three doubles, and five runs scored while Snopek tallied a .545 batting average (6-for-11) with four RBIs, four runs, two doubles, and a triple. Berger hit .500 (6-for-12) with four runs and two RBIs, and Bravo hit .462 (6-for-13) with five RBIs, three doubles, and four runs.
 
After Brown opened the scoring with a run in the top of the second, Harvard answered in the bottom half of the frame as first-year Peter Levin hustled home on a wild pitch. The Crimson took a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the third as Snopek scored following a Berger single. In the top of the seventh the Bears plated five runs to go ahead 7-2. Harvard scored three runs in the last of the seventh off a sacrifice fly from Snopek, double from Bravo, and single from Berger before Brown closed out the game.
