40 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Monday, July 13, 1958 4 CLOSE ONE IN BRANTFORD SPORTS MENU 'Everything from Soup to Nuts" by Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR Oshawa Merchants lost a heart- breaking decision up in Brantford on Saturday when the Red Sox took a 3-2 decision. The homesters grabbed a 3-0 lead off starting pit- cher Ted Stone -- who even as you are reading this (according to the underground wire) may have sign- ed a contract with Boston Red Sox -- and later in the game, Ron- nie Ryba hit a two-run homer that ut Merchants back in the running. t was a sizzling ball game and the win moved Brantford up clos- er to the top in the Inter-County league race. Kitchener Panthers visit the Oshawa Merchants tonight and this is one of the three big games carded for the Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium this week -- _ the three top clubs are all here, Kitcheneer tonight, Brantford here Wednesday and Waterloo here on Friday. The Panthers were beaten 5-3 right at home by the Gpelnh Maple Leafs on Saturday night, with Clark going to Philip's rescue, to hold the lead when Kitchener rallied in the 6th inning. The league - leading Kitchener Panthers have been going great guns but it's about time for them fall on a few evil days. They'll likely send Fedoris against the Merchants here tonight although little Mel Duncan, their ace moundsman, may be ready to go again. It will be "Bud" Ripple- meyer for the Oshawa Merchants tonight and local baseball fans should out in great numbers. There wasn't a single baseball fan up on MacMillan Drive on Sun- day afternoon -- the admission to the Stadium was free, where the Merchants defeated the Transport- ers 10-5 in a friendly exhibitition game that saw both teams use all available hands. But getting back to this game tonight here, we can not too strongly recommend this attrac- tion to the local sport fans. Osh- awa Merchants are playing sparkling ball right now and the schedule is over the half-way mark, so every game is very important. Kitchener Panthers have bowed to the Merchants twice and if Oshawa can fak this big game here tonight, they'll back on the beam. Guelph has moved up to threaten Oshawa's 5th-place grip again staying right on Oshawa's heels. Terriers pounded out three hom- ers and won 13-7 over St. Thom- as on Saturday night. London blanked Waterloo Tigers 6-0. There are a lot of baseball rum- ours flying around these days. We heard this morning that Boston Red Sox are chasing Herman Mas- on and. that they're going to sign Ted Stone. Ron Ryba almost pull- ed out for Nova Scotia on Saturday noon but Pres. John Harris talked the good catcher into staying. Meanwhile -- July 15th -- last day for signing players for Inter-County competition, comés up on Wednes- day and since that is also the last signing date for most clubs -- per- haps the hectic scramble will end then. At any rate, the latest rum- our to interest Oshawa baseball fans is that [Eddie Draphcho, Guelph's - good left-hander, may come to Oshawa before July 15th. Our advice to the ball fans is to wait until Thursday morning and then we should all know just where we're at, certainly -- that's a doubnful situation at the mo- ment! Terriers Home Runs Swamp St. Thomas By THE CANADIAN PRESS The dogs came out of the dog- house Saturday night. Galt Terriers, who haven't won too many senior intercounty base- ball games this season, had the home fans cheering with their 13-7 | win over St. Thomas Elgins. The | victory came as a result of a 15-hit spree that included three home runs and a triple. Big Jeep Jessup, who relieved starter Zeb Eaton in the third in- ning, held the Elgins to only two runs, Bob Penny of London Majors | pitched the only shutout in Satur- day night's activity. He allowed five hits as third-place Majors | trounced Waterloo Tigers 6-0. In other Janes, sixth - place Guelph Maple Leafs downed lead- ing itchener' Panthers 5-3 by stop- ping a sixth-inning Panther rally. Second-place Brantford Red Sox scored a 32 victory over Oshawa Merchants. Galt won its game on home runs. In the sixth, Rightfielder Ed Steele and third baseman Johnny Rus- sian homered to score three runs. In the eighth, shortstop Mike Pon- tarelli homered with one man on for another two runs. Three Elgin pitchers tried to halt the Galt a tack. Don Summers was 'charged with the loss. London made the most of nine hits off three Waterloo hurlers. George Ariss lasted until the fifth when Roly Larouche took over. Hank Biasatti relieved Larouche in the eighth to finish. A three-run fifth inning won the game for Lon- | don. Guelph, visiting at Kitchener, unced on Panther starter Me! Duncan for eight hits and five runs in the third and fifth innings be- fore he settled down. In the sixth Panthers scored two runs and {loaded the bases to kmock Marty { Philp from the mound. Johnny Clark came in and stop- ped the attack although it cost him one run. Philp was credited with the victory. Brantford gained its three runs on three hits and an error in the third. Oshawa got two back in the fourth, but couldn't manage a rally for more. Merchants used three pitchers, the loss being charged to starter Ted Stone. uthpaw Alf Gavey went all the way for the Red Sox. In league games tonight, Kitch ener plays at Oshawa, Guelph at Waterloo, London at Galt and St. Thomas at Brantford. Royals Back On Top In International Montreal's. back on top again as a result of two week-end Inter- Jationat Baseball League victories. ut, Buffalo Bisons who have top- pled them twice in recent days are only two percentage points and a half-game behind. The Royals were on the wrong end of a 4-3 count Saturday against Ottawa, but took both ends of a doubleheader from the Athletics Sunday, 95 and 3-2. Buffalo went down to a 10-0 de- feat at the hands of fourth-place Baltimore Orioles Saturday, but Jack Wallaesa hit three homers and batted in five runs Sunday as the Bisons whomped the Orioles 11-4 to make up their loss of face. Third-place Rochester Red Wings were ed 6-5 by sixth-place Syt- acuse Chiefs Saturday and Art Hartley, who had lost eight straight to the Wings, pitched a six-hit shutout against them Sunday for a 1-0 score. Fifth-place Toronto Leafs downed cellar-dwelling Springfield Cubs 7-3 Saturday and then split with them Sunday, Toronto winning the first ame 4-1 with a three-run outburst n the fourth frame and Spring: field taking the nightcap 4-2. In the opener at Montreal, Art Ditmer was knocked from the box in the sixth and charged with his 13th loss in 15 starts. Leftie Tom Lasorda of Montreal ran his per- sonal score up to 10 wins in a dozen starts. d In the second contest, Sandy Amoros scored fellow-Cuban Chico Fernandez for the winner. He had homered--his 14th--in the first. Reliefer Ronnie Lee got the win and Ed Burtschy was tabbed with the loss. At Baltimore, Ken Chapman greeted Dick Starr, Oriole started with a round-trip wallop on the first pitch. Ernie Nevgl went the route for the Bisons, Starr was replaced in the fourth after Wall- aesa's second homer with two ahpard. artley of beaten the Wings since 1949 and now has a 2-9 record against them. He allowed only one runner to reach third base; walked three and struck out three. Murray Patrick Signs As Coach SEATTLE (AP)--Murray (Muzz) Patrick, youngest member of the famed Patrick hockey family, signed Saturday as coach of Seat- tle Bombers of the Western Hockey League. Patrick, 38, had been sought by New York Rangers of the National Hockey League, but said he de- cided to remain in this area he- cause '"'my family and I love the northwest and we're going to stay." Patrick, manager-coach of the now defunct Tacoma Western League club for the last five sea- sons, also spurned offers from Viec- toria, Calgary and Toronto to take the Seattle job.

Red Sox Tip Merchants 3-2, Tying Run Nipped At Plate BRANTFORD -- Oshawa Mer- chants had the would-Be tying run nipped by inches, at home plate, as a runner tried to steal home in the 9th inning here on Saturday night and the Brantford Red Sox took a 3-2 decision. Red Sox got their three runs off starting pitcher Ted Stone, who was later relieved by Tony De- Laurentis and again later, Johnny Walter finished off the mound dut- ies for the visitors. A two-run hom- er by Ronnie Ryba put the Mer- chants back in the running after Brantford had taken the 3-0 lead and from that point, it was a siz- Money Winners In Canadian Open -- Money winners and their scores in the Canadian Open Golf Championship (x--denotes amateur): TORONTO (CP) Dave Douglas, Newark, Del.

In Friendly Ex. Tilt A crowd of over 500 baseball fans sat and enjoyed the afternoon sun and diamond entertainment at the Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stad- ]1|ium yesterday afternoon as Osh- awa Merchants defeated Oshawa Transporters 10-5, in a friendly ex- hibition game that proved to be just that -- friendly and strictly an exhibition. Taking advantage of Bill McTav- ish's wildness in the first inning, Merchants hit behind three-straight walks to turn these tickets into runs and then in the fifth inning they tied into Jack Durston's offerings for a six-run parade, scored on three walks and four hits, including two-baggers by Herman Mason and pinch-hitter Ronnie Ryba. Pinch-hittin in the 9th, "Big Bob" Joynt scored the final run of the game for the Merchants, thanks to some benevolent moves by the Transporter team. Jimmie Jones and Herman Mas- on each had two hits for the win- ners, who except when Ted Stone was on the mound in the closing frames, appeared to have little trouble at the plate but Stone's speedy and sharp curve gave them all trouble -- he didn't allow any hits. Transporters clicked for a run on three hits and a walk in the fifth inning. Ted Morris, starting pitch- er for Merchants, had no trouble but still failed to impress. All Ger- ringer took over for Merchants in the last half of the game and was hit hard. Transporters got two runs in the sixth when Pete Murphy singled, Bill Cook was "beaned" by | i a hard, high shoot -- but fortunate- ly was not seriously injured. Bunny Maeson belted a long double. The Transporters got their final two runs in the 9th, featured by Ted Stone's two-bagger.
