James Hildreth's first LV= County Championship century of the season ensured Somerset claimed a draw from their rain-affected fixture with Yorkshire at Taunton.
Unbeaten on 76 in a total of 232 for six going into the final day, Hildreth was eventually dismissed for 115, by which time his side were within three runs of avoiding the follow-on.
Once they did so before being bowled out for 310, a draw was the inevitable outcome. With a first-innings lead of 140, Yorkshire initially slumped to 21 for three before closing on 104 for four.
The visitors took 11 points from the match and Somerset, who are still awaiting their first championship win of the season, just seven.
The final day began with the hosts requiring 69 to avoid being asked to bat again. Hildreth and Craig Meschede extended their seventh-wicket stand to exactly 100 before the latter fell to the second new ball, caught at short cover off Steven Patterson for 32.
There were still 29 needed at that stage to reach the safety figure of 301 and Yorkshire sensed a chance.
However, Hildreth, whose chanceless ton came off 150 balls with 12 fours, then put on 26 with George Dockrell before being yorked by Moin Ashraf.
Dockrell pulled a short ball from Adil Rashid to the boundary in the next over and from then on the only interest concerned how many bonus points the two teams would claim.
Yorkshire were assured of a maximum tally when Dockrell played on to Ashraf, having contributed a useful 14. The oaceman then had Steve Kirby taken at second slip and finished with 3-60.
Kirby ensured his old county could not completely relax by removing Joe Sayers for a single and Phil Jaques for a second-ball duck in the eighth over of Yorkshire’s second innings.
When Peter Trego followed up by pinning Andrew Gale lbw the visitors needed a partnership to steady the ship.
It came from Adam Lyth and Gary Ballance, who took the total to 91 before the latter was caught at mid-on off Dockrell for 31, by which time many spectators were dozing comfortably in the warm sunshine.
Lyth finished unbeaten on 57 and Yorkshire could feel satisfied with an impressive all-round performance.
