With only eighit players showing up, Mothersillîs scored eighteen runs in the first three innings to rnercy the local boys 18-4. Walks were the teams downfall, as they allowed twelve. As their players cnjoyed ýtheir free passes to first, the Bowmanville pitcher was, striking out six of our players. When we did get a hit, it seemed to always go directly to their infielders. Paul Dreslinski was on base twice for the HaIlers' and Tomas Wakefield contributed a triple before leaving for his other surnmer sport. Grant Esier played a solid gameat shortstop throwing ont several runiners. Another brighit spot for the homne town was the relief pitching of this wccks star of the game Ryan Dcwulf who struck out five batters during the two innings he pitched.
