Cartwright ball growing faster than economy Major League baseball and especially the Toronto Blue Jays have had a tremendous im- pact on organized minor ball. Again this year, Cartwright Mi- nor Ball has seen an increase in the number of youths register- ing to play ball. Last season saw the introduction of hardball to the Cartwright area. In previ- ous years only softball had been available. With the Jay's win- ning the World Series, hardball has become more popular in the area. This year there are now seven hardball teams, up from six a year ago. The softball teams have increased by two teams over last season. This year will see the continuation of rep ball. The members of the rep ball team travel to various com- munities representing Cart- wright. This season's team is being sponsored by Warren Rohrer Minihoe and Landscaping of Nestleton. The team will be called the Cartwright Diggers. John Dawson of Port Perry will coach the rep team this season. Players are now being con- tacted by their coaches and team practices are being sched- uled. The softball team lineups for the season are as follows: for T-Ball (ages four, five and six) the teams are Blackstock Lion- ess, Super Spud, Blackstock Peowes The Peewee MoJacks Fast- ball team got off to a good start to the '94 season. The boys had an exhibition game against the Oshawa Shamrocks last Tues- day evening here at home. Der- ek Tindall, who has never played for a rep ball team, start- ed the game off with a good catch in deep centre field to set the defensive tone for the game. Clayton Brown went to the mound for the first two innings and allowed only two hits while striking out four batters. Port Perry scored three runs in the bottom of the second in- ning. Clay, Ryan McQuade and Ryan Hawkins all crossed the plate after reaching base on walks, an Oshawa error and a couple of nice singles up the middle. Jon Froats came on to pitch the next two innings. He al- lowed only one hit and a base on balls while striking out one bat- ter. Jon forced the Oshawa team to hit pop flys or infield grounders and the defence did the rest. Port scored two more runs in the bottom of the fifth as Clay hit a double, Mike Versage hit a single and Ryan Hawkins got a double to add to his single from the second inning. Chris Jones came on to pitch the last three innings and al- lowed two hits while striking out five. He struck out all three batters in the seventh inning to end the game. Batting 1,000 on the night were Clayton Brown and Ryan Hawkins. Batting 500 were Mike Versage, Jon Froats and Brad Monsma. Darryl Dalton went one for three as he hit his first double of the season. In the coaches corner after the game Dave, Dennis and Pat Figure Skating Club, and Anal- da Garden Centre. The next group is ages seven and eight.

The Tyke baseball teams (ages nine, 10 and 11) are Wot- ten Carpentry and London Life MoJacks action were impressed with the mid- season vi that the boys were making this early in the season. Ryan Hawkins made a nice tag on a runner going from first to second and then threw out the runner going to first for the first double play of the season. I don't think it will be the last one either. Jeff Ashton at catcher also made a nice throw to Ryan Lazers. The 12 and 13 year olds are the Pee Wee division, which are Marlin Travel and the Causeway Cougars.
