* THE OSHAWA DAILY. TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27, 1928 eee geen, VILLE 8.7 IN CENTRAL LEAGUE CONTEST Oshawe Rallies in 8 th. [Ec | to Def eat Belleville 8-7 Ross of, Oshawa General Motors moved foto a tie with Kingston and De- loro, for second position® in the hard fought Central League race, last night by nosing out the leagae- leading Belleville Nationals, 8-7. The fans who turned out for the contest were rewarded by interes{- ing and fairly good baseball, wit the last inning and a aalf furnish- ing enough excitement to make up for some of the slower sessions. Oshawa were leading 6-3 when Belleville went to bat in the first of the eighth and Matthews had allowed but four hits, to the Na- tional sluggers, when things began to happen. It looked very much like the big boy was easing up, due to the three run lead, and throw- ing the ball down the groove was bad business, '"Peeney'" Mills, the first man up singled through Mat- thews, Blakely slashed ® double past Kellar and Bob Seott, the youthful Belleville third baseman, laid a pretty bunt down the third base line, scoring Mills, "Sonny" Green dropped a perfect Texas leaguer in left, and then with Alex Septt up, brother Bob attempted to work the squeeze play, Catcher Quinn promptly committed a faux pas by throwing wild to third and Scott scored, and Blake- ley. Matthews began to bear down about that time and whiffed Alex Scott, Manager Walt Schultz was all set to shift Dainty from right field to the slab before that happened, but as soon as Matthews showed signs of talent, Schultz smiled from ear to ear, tha Oshawa players smiled and in fact all the supporters smiled, the sun came out and Schaeffer laughed right out lond with evident relief, Utronki had a wonderful chance to win his own game right then and there, but his long lift to centre was taken by Reg, Fair, Gresn going to third, having pilfered second while Scott was at bat. Weir, lead- off man for the Nationals, guve hi m a one lead when he singled to left, scoring Green, hut "Wicky'" Ross gladdened the hearts of the Oshawa fans by grounding to. second, going out McAllum to Kellar. Quinn's Triple Timely There was a pall of gloom over the diamond after that rally, hard- er to cut than the proverbial Gor- dian knot, Recalling Belleville's lucky breaks in the double-header last Wednesday, gave the fans the idea that they were Oshawu's jinx for the season, but Oshawa's rally sent everyone home happy, Belle- villians excepted. Kellar, started out wrong by go- ing out Blakely to Harry Mills, but Quinn, whose wild throw to third in the previous inning had caused so much trouble, made tne erowd ing a the tying run vy Allum, who h calcium glare in the first inning by hitting a home run, crossed Gtronki completely by diaggtng a tan g roller down the first base line. The Belleville hurler tried hard to field it {a time, so hard that he lost his the attempt, and Quinn across the plate with the absolute. ly necessary, The wasn't so very large, but the neise it made shifted the furniture in the mew Golf Clubhouse, Reg. Fair, who had rather a disastrous day at bat, failing to get a hit in four trips to the plate, tried to duplicate Me- Allum's effort, under orders, but Utronkl tossed him out with case, McAllum going to second, and Fair getting credit: for a sacrifice. The old reliable, "Duke" Dainty, who was doing garden duty instead of his customary mound work, came through in fine style, hitting a beautiful double to right field that Alex Scott neever came near and McAllum galloped in to put the Motors in front. Matthews-ended the spasm by lifting to Ross, Out In Order The ninth inning was a nervous few minutes for everyone in the park, but Matthews showed his class, when Harry Mills went out McAllum to Kellar, '"Peeney'" Mills slapped the ozone for the second time during the game much to his own disgust and the delight of the fans. Blakely dropped the curtain by flying to Dainty. all about it by clout~ to deep centre. With Altogether it was an exciting hal] game that deserved a far greater crowd of fans, Now that the local diamond stars have chas- ed the Belleville jinx, they should climb to the top in a very short while. Matthews proved that the club is not so badly off as the ex- perts would have it, in a pitching sense, Up to the eighth inning, "Chuck' let the league leaders down with four hits and three runs, walking four and striking out am even half dozen, His teammates contributed four errors that didn't help the cause any, but they gave a fair fielding display neverthe- less, In the seventh inning Wil- liams relieved a dangerous situa- tion by making a circus catch in left field with three en base, Folks of that type are nice to have around, McAllum and Matthews himself, collected three hits to swell their batting average and every player on the team, with the exception of Fair, slapped out at least one safety, Bob Scott led the opposition with two hits. Utron- ki, who took a narrow decision from Oshawa down in Belleville, was forced to finish short, but he does not get credit for the loss, his team being behind 6-2 when he shouldered the burden, Alto- gether there were eight extra base hits, McCallum getting the lone homer--the first Oshawa wan to face Darrah. ' Young and Quinn each crashed a triple and Dainty, Alex Scott, Weir, Blakely ana H. Mills hit doubles.

Now if the boys come through with a double victory on the holiday Alexandra Park should be too small for the rest of the season.

It was a masterful piece of hurling by the youthful Toronto pitcher, and his second successive victory by the shut-out route, Prudhomme was only two days' rest, which makes the feat all the more remarkable, hits on Saturday to win 4 to 0, and came right back with the same kind of performance today, limit- ing the locals to a half-dozen safe- ties. Herman Bell, starting hurler for the Reds, had plenty of stuff the first two innings, mowing the Leafs down in one-two-three order, The stage seemed to be set for a pretty hurlers' duel, but as the game progressed the Shreveport farmer grew stronger, while Bell's slants became less troublesome for the Leaf batters, Leafs Score in Third The visitors trotted across 8 run in their half of the third which proved sufficient for victory, and it was a gift score from the Reds' pitcher. After Burke had singled to start the inning Bell issued a pair of passes, and put himself in . [bot water, but he could have wing- ed out nicely without yielding a run bad he left the mound to cover first for a play at that bag. With two out and the bases full Sexton hit between Monahan and Toporcer, Monahan making a try for the ball 'but being unable to reach it. Toporcer, however, was on the play, but with no more coy- ering the bag "Specs" had nothing to do but stand with the ball in his hand and watch Sexton reach first in safety while Burke scam- pered across the plate with the first run.

Crummer and Wilson both pitch- ed steady ball, staging a pitcher's battle all the way. Textiles count- ed one rum in the 1st and four in the 4th, when Wilson began to weaken, while Fittings registered a duo in the initial inning, and one in the 6th and 8th. Arnold was left stranded on 3rd in the last inning with the tying run, Hes- ter and Wilson failing to come through with the necessary hit. Salmon, 'playing left field for the losers, supplied the fielding fea- tures with two sensational catches and made a bid for the game by clouting a home run, Brady, cen- tre-fielder, and lead-off man for Textiles, also contributed a four- base sock.

Chev Sluggers Hammer Lidster and Smith to Win 15.1-- ~Olds Gather But Two Hits Off Queen's Star In an uninteresting and one sided game between Olds and Chevs, at Alexandra Park last night, Chevs won 15 to 1. The features of the 7 inn- ing game were the two home runs of Hubbell, and Rowden's long drive into left for another. Sutton's pitch- ing was brilliant, as he was out for a record number of strike outs. Had the game gone the full distance he would have equalled or passed Roger's 19 for a full nine innings, as it was he had 15 in seven. Chevs played everything in the line of ball, the hit and run, bunts, etc. and it looks as if they will go through to the finals again this fall. Alec Webster, last year Chevy's pitching star was out for the first time and did fairly well, playing at third in the outfield. On Friday night 7.15 p.m. LaSalle and Pontiacs hook up, and LaSalles are out to trim them again as in the last game which ended by LaSalles winning in the ninth 3 to 2.
