Rankin carpenters hammer Pineridge By Frank Trainor Ray Rankin Carpentry 21 Pineridge Sports 8 Ray Rankin Carpentry team got back on its winning track re- cently with a convincing 21-8 victory over Pineridge Sports. The June 16 match-up at S.A. Cawker field saw both teams joust early on for the lead with the edge going to the Rankin team by the mid-way point. The excellent pitching of Mat- thew Steurgess of Pineridge Sports along with his team- mates, Jason Lown, who played superbly in left field and Aaron Chambers, with a fantastic catch at the shortstop position, kept the suspense going in this one to the very end. However, the floodgates opened when Mike Cannon stepped to the plate in the Ran- kin half of the final inning with the bases loaded. With two out and a full count of three and two against him, Cannon hammered a blast to- wards heaven for a grand slam that cemented the win for his team. Ace pitcher for Ray Rankin, Scott Harper, made his own dramatic contribution too with his best outing so far this sea- son to hold Pineridge to their eight runs. Together with the solid catch- ing of Jamie Clark and the all round super defensive plays and the awesome offense from the bats, Scott and Mike and the whole Ray Rankin Carpen- try team'put it all together for a classic, slump ending, victory to carry them into the second half ofthe season.
