It is assumed that the Smith who bowled was H.Smith who bowled in the first match and presumably not the 'thrower' Smith as his deliveries were fair.
On the journey back to Philadelphia the ship hit rocks off Minors Ledge Lighthouse, and limped slowly back to Boston. On arrival the ship was listing badly and all luggage was lost. The captain came under severe censure for not only attempting to get back to port, but ignoring all offers of help for the waiting tugs.
