"I was sure that we had it," said the Grade 9 student. "I was so happy and thrilled we would have the game. It didn't work out the way we wanted." Cerpnjak's home run came off Stanley, one of the Tigers' mound mainstays, who was nowhere near 100 per cent after suffering a shoulder injury during a rep game a month ago. Stanley was unable to throw overhand yesterday and was only able to bunt during her turns at the plate, but still managed to pitch four innings of four-run ball (three of those runs earned). Teammate Tina Andreana more than picked up the slack, holding the Titans hitless in four innings while striking out nine and walking one. The Tigers began the game without their MVP, Kelly Hannivan, who was in Algonquin Park on a school trip. She arrived in the third inning and nearly became an instant heroine, entering the game as a pinch hitter with two runners on and two out. Hannivan smashed a liner to third, but it was caught by Kristin Sprukulis to end the inning. Kinsman finished the game with three hits, a walk and two runs scored. Andreana drove in the Tigers' other run, cashing Kinsman in the third inning with a single to right. Jessica Decock had two singles and Sherri Cormier had an RBI groundout for the Titans. Lianne Facca and Misty Hammel scored on Cerpnjak's homer. Trinity pitchers Sprukulis and Lauren McLaughlin limited the Tigers to five hits and one run over the first six innings.
