Moase, C.A. and by Ives Florists and An- tiques. This past week saw the Port Midgets come closer to securing first place in the Oshawa and District League by defeating both the Scarborough Dias and Bramalea. On Tuesday, Scarborough rolled into town with some heavy thunderstorm clouds and storm warnings, and it was questionable whether the game would be played. It was touch and go until game time, and then our strange summer weather took over and became a beautiful night to play ball. On a strong pitching effort by Chad Venning and Denis Smith, Port picked up the 9-2 win. They combined for five strike outs, one walk, five hits, and two earned runs. In the first inning, Port scored three runs when Jason McBride and Todd Smart, on with a single and a walk, scored on a two-run RBI singled by Steve Laird. Laird then was driven home by Darrell Vander Slagt on an RBI single. In the second inning, Darrell Vanderligt and Smart who reached base on an error and a single, were scored by a two run RBI single off the bat of Jason Cochrane. With some heads up base running, Cochrane was able to steal home on an errant throw to third. In the fourth, Vanderligt and McBride, who were on base with a single and an error, were sent home by RBI singles from Smart and Cochrane. This was an excellent display of hitting, since the Port Midgets had been idle due to bad weather for al- most one and a half weeks. On Thursday, the Merchants visited Bramalea, a team which has improved a great deal over the season and are now giving the other teams in the league a hard time with their pitching and hitting. Port needed and got strong pitching from Denis Smith and Jeff Card in this low scoring 2-0 game. Smart led off the game with a walk and scored on an RBI sin- gle by Brad Moase. In the fourth, Port was able to score when Scott MacLennan reached first with a lead off sin- gle, moved to second on a single by Venning, and was sent home on an RBI single by Smith. Even though the score was 2- 0, Port left 13 runners stranded on base. An important factor in this tight game was Card's ef- fort late in the game when he struck out seven batters in the last three innings.

Cartwright Minor Ball awards to be presented on Sunday Sunday, Aug. 30 will mark the end of the 1992 season for Cartwright Minor Ball. The season will be celebrated with a year-end exhibition all-star game, followed by the presenta- tion of awards and trophies. The game will commence at 2 p.m. at the fairgrounds in Blackstock, and the awards presentation will begin about 3 p.m. in front of the grandstand. This year will see a return of the five inning all-star game that was so successful last year. The best players from each divi- sion will be divided into two squads, with one inning of ball played by each division. The game will start with the T-ball all-stars, then an inning with the Tykes, followed by Mites, Squirts and Seniors. An inning featuring the coaches has been dropped from this year's game by popular demand. The game promises to be exciting, with an- nouncers, refreshments and y Paper TrrERY SEER PRE EE ERS FE LE EEE EEE EEA A hd ~e> oer great plays.

Wade Leg two of the 1992 Coca Cola Classic Pacing Series produced two new winners at Kawartha Downs on Saturday, Aug. 22. Shipping in from a successful month at Rideau Carleton, Re- bellious Gypsy recorded his third straight win for Ktystyna and Tim Stanley of Milton when he paced a 1:58 trip for driver Len Lalonde, Sr. The four-year-old Super Rebel gelding was sent away as the 55 cent favorite off his life- time best 1:56.2 in his last out- ing at Rideau. LaLonde chose the front end and was never headed through fractions of :27.1 - :56.4 and 1:27. Lalonde told trainer Stanley "I didn't re- alize that he could leave that much." Stanley says "I pay driv- ers to drive and they choose how they race my horses, I don't tell them how to drive." Stanley has "been racing in these series because it's too tough at Greenwood and I thought I'd like to keep my hors- es fresh for the Fall Meet." The victory was number five in 24 starts for Rebellious Gyp- sy this season and raised his earnings to $12,389. Miss Rebel finished second by a mere two and a quarter lengths for trainer-driver Gord Brown. She finished second in th 2 Finlandia Vodka Series four weeks ago. She's owned by E.A. McDonald of Peterborough. Warm Knight was another uarter length back in third for d Peconi, Jr. The fourth and fifth cheques went to Mac Flint and Tantal- lon Lucy. In division two, B available, another Stanley trainee was sent away the prohibitive favor- ite at 15 cents. However, he made a break after the half and rebounded only enough to grab fifth money. Brian Collins got the call to Sm (Ny § | A personal best 4 for Tantallon Celtic drive C P Coals, a three-year- old Coal Harbor colt, for owner Sandra Smith of Cobourg and husband/trainer Mike. Collins described the pre-race strategy as "leave and take no prison- ers." It worked! C P Coals breezed through quarters of :28.4 - :59.3 and 1:28.4 en route to his lifetime best 1:58.2 victo- ry. Y Collins had only driven this colt once before and said that "he's had some problems recent- ly, and it appears they've been overcome." Seven Days Late, a winner last week, got the perfect trip, but couldn't hold on to second spot in'the lane as Young Buck edged him out at the wire by three quarters of alength. . Bailiwick got up for fourth. Next Saturday, these pacers hook up in the third leg and they will be looking for a spot on the gate in the $6,900 Final on Saturday, Sept. 5. Reg Gassien hit a milestone on Saturday night when King Iran gave him winning drive number 50 on Race Date Num- ber 33. It was the 11th win in 30 starts for King Iran, owned and trained by Murray Bolton of Pe- terborough. Tantallon Celtic, a five-year- old Balanced Image gelding, trotted to a personal best 1:59.3 for Wayne Dowson. Dowson trains the trotter and co-owns him with Donna and Glenn Van Camp of Port Perry. On Thursday night, Tom Miller gave Bermuda Lad a new record of 1:56.4 for Toronto own- er Ronald McCoy and trainer Jesse James. The four-year-old General star gelding has won three of 10 starts this season. Thursday's crowd of 1,147 wagered $105,216 while Satur- day drew 1,473 fans who bet $122,846.
