Both teams had tough semi-final rounds the previous week and this game proved to follow suit. Thompson's being the league leaders had home team advantage and in the bottom of the 1st after keeping Frew's off the board in the top of the inning, took to the bats and tallied five runs. With two on base Greg Stapleton banged one out for a home run followed by a homer from David Akker- man. = Frew's were hitting but _fielding plays like that of second baseman Mike Stan- ley as he took a cut off throw from the outfield and fired it home to catcher Kevin Gib- son foiled a home run attempt by Frews or the sure gloves of Graig Hoskin. David Akkerman, Greg Stapleton and Kevin Gibson proved to be frustrating for Frew batters as they picked off line drives, outfield flies and pop-ups. Frew's tightened up after the first inning and were equal to the task of fielding ..and pitching as they 2nd was scoreless and runs were traded in the 3rd and 4th innings. The only other run to score was by Frew's in the top of the 6th and their last bat but they failed to pene- trate Thompson's defense. The good pitching of Greg Stapleton accounted for two outs in the top of the 6th. The final out came from short- stop, Jeff Beddome as he picked off an infield fly and a championship victory. For Thompson's the game was won in the 1st inning and the final score of 7-3 reflects the tight, tough, exciting ball game that it was. Thompson's Village Mark- et are the 1980 Junior Champs, they are proud of it, and foremost they worked hard for it. August 20 was the prem-' iere game of the season as Haines Esso met the league leaders Port Perry Kinsmen in a battle for the title of Senior Division Champs. Haines' Esso struck the first blow as Carol Lewer- entz, the lead batter hamm-. ered one out past center field and scored a home run. The first inning was retired with a score of 2 to 1 for Haines. The game remained tight and was turning into a pitch- ing duel between Denolt and Ferguson as reflected by the scoring. Second inning Haine's remained in front 5 re - on's 1st to 3, the third was scoreless and by the fourth, Kinsmen held Haine's scoreless in the top and managed to pick up two runs to tie the game. The tie was short lived as Haines picked up two runs in the fifth, one of which was a home run by Dave Sandy. To this point in the game the fielding and pitching was nearly flawless, all bast hits or home runs were well hit balls, finding the holes in each other's defense. The sixth inning was wide open as Hairles' batters ex- ploded with a home run by Bernie Martin along with 2 R.B.L's, then a single run scored. With one on and two away Dave Sandy cracked . one out for his second home run and an R.B.I. Haines' rallied for 6 runs. Port Perry Kinsmen was not to be outdone. As their bats started to connect and found the holes in the Haines' defense. Kinsmen tallied up five runs in the bottom of the sixth with a home run by Kevin Ferguson and R.B.1.'s At the end of the 6th Haines maintained their edge 13 to 10. . The 7th inning was back to business as the pitchers settled down and regained control of the game. Fergu- son and crew retired Haines last bat allowing only a single run and a chance to pick up the four needed for a tie with their last bat in the bottom of the 7th. . With a victory in sight Preston Denolt was equal to the task of pitching allowing only 3 hits of which. one scored for a run. Witht#two out and two on base Graig Paisley of Kinsemn advanc- ed to the plate determined to keep the team alive. Denolt just as determined for the out fired them past the batt- er. Paisley struck out swing- ing, giving Denolt the 3rd out, the game and a champ- ionship victory over Port Perry Kinsmen by a margin of 14 to 11. _ The bottom line is that it was an exciting well played contest of skill displayed by both teams. Men's team (From |page 13) bag, for a double. The winning tally eventually scored with a one out sacri- fice fly to Williams in deep right field. Williams fired to cutoff man Doug Scott but the second baseman had no chance of throwing out the runner. i For Irvine, it was another solid outing despite picking up his first loss of the play- offs. He doesn't overpower too many people but is an excellent control hurler who won't hurt himself with walks. Consequently, he has a low strike out and base on balls ratio for each nine inning game. He has been the winner in every game Port Perry has taken in the playdowns. Port played an unusually shaky game on defence. Ken Bryant, especially, had a rough game at his shortstop position as 'he made three errors on sharp bouncers. Port's limited offence with five hits was insufficient to overcome the opportunistic scoring from the home team. _ The second game of the best of three round was scheduled for Port Perry the next night but it was rained out. It will be played on Saturday, September 6 at 8:30 p.m. on the Joe Fowler Memorial Diamond in Port. If Port emerges with a series tying win, the final game also goes in Port at 2:00 p.m. Sunday, September 7. In addition, Port opens the Lake Scugog softball league playoffs against - Janetville on Wednesday September 6. Port finished ahead of Janetville in the final stand- ings but lost their first place berth after the Pontypool Generals put on a late surge.
