Peewee The Peewee MoJacks of the York Durham League out- scored their opponents 2-1 last weekend in their league tourna- ment finals but it wasn't enough to advance them into the final rounds on Sunday in Richmond Hill. Port Perry end- ed up fifth in the standings on the season out of al0-team loop. The first game of the day was against Pickering and for a game first thing in the morning the boys came to play. Jon Froats pitched the entire first game despite not feeling well and gave up only one hit in three innings of play. Jon also gave up three walks while strik- ing out three batters. The mercy rule came into effect as the Port team won 17-1. Ryan McQuade led the boys at the plate as he picked up a triple and a bunt single. Ryan Hawkins continued with his long ball hitting as he picked up a triple. Scott Jeffrey, Clay Brown and Mike Versage picked up two singles each. Reid McTaggart reached base twice on errors and, with some timely hits and his good base running, crossed the plate each time. Ryan McQuade iaid down the perfect bunt along the first base line that the speedy Reid picked up on to score a run. There were three defensive highlights that deserve men- tioning in this game. Catcher Brad Monsma had a great game behind the plate as he picked up a bunt along the first base line and fired to first for the out in the first inning. In the second inning, Brad made a hard throw to second to shortstop Ryan McQuade who tagged a runner trying to steal on a pass ball. In the third inning, second baseman Darryl Dalton made a great diving catch on a bouncer up the middle to stop a runner For those "couch-potatoes"" who are looking for an alter- native, RINGETTE may be the activity you've been wait- ing for.

In the second game of the day, Chris Jones took to the mound against Bramalea who placed second in the overall league standings. Chris had a bit of control problem as he walked nine batters while giving up seven hits and striking out five. Scott Jeffrey and Derek Tin- dall led the boys at the plate as they each picked up a double and a single. Mike Versage con- tinued with his hot bat and picked up two singles. Jeff Ash- ton and Chris Jones rounded out the hitting with a single each. Ryan McQuade made a great diving catch on a hit and recov- ered in time to throw to Mike at third for the force but the call didn't go our way. It was a great effort by both boys. Final score 7-4 for Bramalea. The third game of the day was against Oshawa who wanted to beat us badly after losing to us in Niagara Falls in a close game. Clay Brown started on the mound and gave up only four hits, three walks and struck out six. Chris Jones came on in relief and struck out one and grounded the last two batters of the game out to short. Brad Monsma was top man at the plate as he picked up two singles. Ryan Hawkins, Scott Jeffrey and Jeff Ashton picked up singles as the Oshawa pitch- er only allowed five hits and struck out 12 Port batters. Defensively Ryan Moynes at first base had a very strong game as he assisted on six put- outs and had to make some long stretches for the outs. Final:. score 4-3 for Oshawa. This sec- ond loss put us out of the run- ning to continue on. The boys can hold their heads high as they have come through a hit- ting slump and a few defensive bobbles to achieve a .644 aver- age so far to date. The team bat- ting average is now at a very re- spectable .321 with 327 runs for and only 165 runs against. This week, the team has two exhibition games against Stouffville in preparation for the OASA tournament in Fer- gus in two weeks. Come down to the south diamond on Tuesday night, Aug. 9, to cheer them on. September. Bantam Merchants clobber their hosts by an 18-2 count This week's report is spon- sored by Parpro Farms. On Aug. 4, the Port Perry Bantam Merchants were at home to Richmond Hill and did not prove to be very gracious hosts as they sent the Rich- mond Hill pitchers home with a loss and an inflated ERA. Final score was 18-2 for the good guys. Port put it all together in this one showing all facets of their game. Not only did they use the big bats, but stole bases, played defence, sacrificed, showed hus- tle,younameit, theydidit. The offence was led by Jeff Clarke who had a thing for the number three in this game. Playing first base (position number three), Jeff had three triples and scored three runs. On the mound, Marshall (the tank) McQuaid pitched his best game of the year, allowing only two hits and striking out twelve. Port's next action is on Aug. lo, at home, against Newmar- et. » NR » A Cartwright Minor Softball TEAM W L TPCT. (T-BALL Final Standings) Bick. Figure Skating 6 3 1 .650 Blkstk.
