With Chilvers missing from the Greenbank line-up the pitching wasfhandled on Saturday and Sunday, at Fenelon Falls, by Goreski and John Logeman, who signed with the Gamblers for 0.A.8.A. Competition. But with Logeman ndt available for the Monday tournament finale due to work comittments, the call went out to Jeff Card of the Port Perry Juveniles. With the score tied at 2-2, Card came on in relief of Mark Goreski, in the fourth inning, and held Barrie off the score sheet while the Greenbank batters added three runs to cap a 5-2 win, with Don Beaton's two run homer being the big blow. Card wasn't finished yet and went to the Gambler mound to oppose Peterborough Mr. Lubes and though the Gamblers eventually lost by a 5-4 score, Card pitched extremely well and could very well have picked up another win. Also Jeff banged out a two run homer to help his own cause. Greenbank homeruns played a large part in the tournament as Greg Newell belted a two run shot off Chris Wilson to down the Mississauga Chiefs and Pete Oosterholt's round tripper was the key blow in the win over Waterdown Paul Goreski, caught all seven Gambler games at Fenelon Falls and chipped in with some timely hitting Meanwhile City League playoffs continue and the Gamblers travel to Brantford for the Ontario "A-A" senior playdowns on Sept. 16-17-18.
