Playing manager Don Gil- hooly's choice for this impor- tant contest was George Jones and Jones lived up to expecta- tions as he gave up 10 scatter- ed hits, fanned 7 and walked 2 men.. Port Hope opened the scor- ing in the second frame frorn two bits coupled with a free pass and a Bowmanviile error with the net resuit beîng two runs. The Harvesters scored their initial run in the fourtha as John Mason aided by Max Yourth's single crossed the plate. With two men out i the top of the fifth Brown singled and Reg Lowery followed with a triple to score Brown and the Ontarios' third run. Run num- ber four came moments laten as Mercer singled to score Lowery. Bowmanville's biggest inning came when least expected. Bal- lett had retired the first two men on strike and was working on Max Yourth but the veteran1 third baseman eked out a free pass to first base. Then Tim Cox broke the bail game wide open with a double. With runners on second and third Bruce Cole pounded a single out to centre field and he stretched it into a double as centre fielder Jex fumbled the bahl. The next batter to face Ballett was Danny Girardi and he went to first the hard way .-being bit by a pitched bail. However Ballett settled down and ended the inning by strik- ing out Kelly. With one awày in the seventh Don Gilbooly counted his first bit o! the game, a single to left field. Lloyd Hamilton foi- lowed with a clutch single and Gilhooly scampered ail the way ta score the tieing run. John Mason appeared to be out number two as be sent a high poppîng fly ta Herman Jex in centre field but the bal bounced out of Jex's glove. Ma- son went to second and Hamil- ton to third on this error. But with two runnens on base and only one out, Bowmanville's hopes faded fast as the next two men went down on fly balîs.
