Description	(NYT: “The spectators encroached too much on the limits of the game to make the play entirely satisfactory to all parties, especially as it was the means of putting out Bergen, when he would otherwise have completed the run. The proportion of doubtful points was unusually large, and, with one exception, were decided against the Continentals, which made them dissatisfied with the result. … Nearly two thousand spectators were on the ground.”)
