F 5 § § f 22 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, June 12, 1984 Sports Tough 1-0 loss in Eastman final caps busy week Gamblers rout Claremont 6-1 Last Monday night the Claremont Legion team visited the Greenbank Ball Park and the pre: viously unbeaten Clare mont squad were dropp- ed by the Gamblers by a 6-1 score. Ken Goreski tossed a nifty three hitter at the Claremont team and was in complete control throughout the game. Greenbank picked up eleven hits with Dennis Romeril, Trevor Till, Don Beaton and Brian Till each getting a pair Grim determination and Neil Rodd, Steve Foster and John Foster getting one each. On Tuesday night the Gamblers travelled to Goodwood and once again the Greenbank bats were working and they pounded out a total of ten hits and 5 runs but the defense had a bad night and they allowed Goodwood to score six runs (five of which were unearned). and they dropped their second game of the young showed in the features of student Brian McLaughlin dur- ing the triple jump event at Cartwright High School's track and field day last Friday.

Ken Goreski came on in relief of Osske in the fourth inning. Hugh Johnston led the Gam- bler attack with 3 hits and Trevor Till and John Foster each had two. Ray Meisner, Brian Till and Dennis Romeril each had a hit to close out the hitting. On the weekend the Greenbank team played in the "Geordie East- man Memorial Tourna- ment" at Durham fields in Oshawa and the team rebounded with an excellent defensive per- formance to make it all the way to the champ- ionship game on Sunday afternoon. Saturday morning saw the Gamblers hook up with Port Perry Legion and Ken Goreski was in excellent form as he shot down the Legion team by a 2-0 score. Tim Thompson pitched strongly for Port Perry and each pitcher allow- ed only two hits. Dennis Romeril and Brian Till had the Greenbank hits with Lawrie Williams and Rob Evans hitting safely for Port Perry. The afternoon game saw a real beauty of a pitchers duel as Green- bank's Russ Korbak and Whitby's Randy Under- wood hooked up in a scoreless game until Brian Till won it for the Gamblers with a two out home run in the seventh inning. Neil Rodd, Hugh Johnston and John Foster picked up the other Gambler hits. Sunday morning saw Greenbank and Port Perry meet for the second time in the tournament in the semi- final game with Russ Korbak and Lawrie Williams, the opposing pitchers. Again the game was very close but again the Gamblers edged out the Legion team by a 2-0 score. John Annis relieved Lawrie Williams in the fifth inning while Kor- bak went the route for Greenbank. John Foster led the Gamblers at the plate with two hits and Dennis Romeril, Steve Foster, Greg Rodd and Roddy Real had one hit each. Jay Williams had two hits for Port Perry, with Colin Wackett and Rick Evans picking up singles. In the championship game the Greenbank battery of Ken Goreski and Don Phinney, plus excellent defensive play by the Gambler outfield held the Scarborough Juniors off the score- board until the sixth inning when Scarbor- ough scored an unearn- ed run. However, the Green- bank hitters failed to solve the offerings of Rich Cowland on the Scarborough mound and they went down to defeat by a 1-0 score. The Gamblers only allowed one run in the tournament but that run cost them the tourna- ment championship.
