Ww . en {41 Hail THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1946 CRONIN MANAGER OF THE BOSTON RED SOX . With HIS GUIDANCE THE HUB CY AAS WON THE AMERICAN LEAGUE PENNANT FORTHE FIRST TIME IN 28 YEARS By Geo. H. Campbell PORT MAFSHOTS Leather "Tannery" left by bus at six o'clock this morning for the Jong "hike" to Sarnis, where they will take on the Polymers this afternoon af 'four o'clock in the second game of their O.A8.A. Inter- mediate "A" Southern Ontario finals series, The local Leathermen have to win this game today, or hang up for the season, Owing to work left-fielder Alfie Branton and right flelder Johnny Trott did not make the trip to Sarnia but Tannery will use either Hraynyk or Logerman in the outfield as a replacement, The Tannery boys are quite confident that they can tle up the series todays They feel that they didn't tarn in thelr best game on Saturday, either defensively or at the plate, We're inclined to agree with that, although two errors in the field is not unsusl, However, "Rooket" Crockett did make the Oshawa batters look rather ordinary but maybe he or the other Sarnia pitcher will have a Jot: more trouble doing that little job this afternoon. Tannery expect Jick McConkey to blage his fast one past the Sarnia batters for the needed victory, They are going on the theory that the Polymers were not bothered much by Hiller's but seemed to have trouble with the faster, straighter pitch, Pe , we do not subscribe to that theory and it wouldn't surprise us very much if the Sarnia boys hit McConkey's speed just as hard as Hiller's "stuff." However, we'll know later today and should Robson Leather tie it up, the 3rd and deciding game will be played on Thursday, perhaps in Brantford or Simcoe, * + + The Oshawa Legion boys are going to hold nightly workouts this week in preparation for their big test this Saturday afternoon, when they take on the Hamilton "1847 Rogers Silver" in the second game "of 'ihe Inter, "AA" O.A8.A. finals. The Legion boys feel that they .. oould quite easily have won the opening game right in Hamilton and they are certainly determined to make a real bid for this second decision and so tie up the series here Saturday and force a 3rd game for Thanksgiving Day, likely to be played on a Toronto diamond. * + * Oshawa's Inter, "Red Raiders" dropped a 11-1 decision up in Orillia on Saturday in the opening game of their "Lakeshore League" O.R.F.U, Intermediate rugby schedule. The Red Raiders are booked to play their next game down in Trenton this Saturday against the husky Airport team. ' On Monday, Thanksgiving Day, the Trenton team is scheduled 0 play here in Oshawa. Oshawa's Junior "Red Raiders" play in Toronto on Friday of this week and again on Thanksgiving Day, At least, those are the latest arrangements but they have been juggling dates in these grid schedules lately at a great rate so we couldn't be sure of any- thing for a while. The OC.V.I. teams expect to announce their rugby this week, perhaps in time for tomorrow's paper, The O.C.V.I, Juniors are expecting to play away from home this Saturday and of ootirse, the Students will not be expected to play on Monday. foe into the Oshawa to have ioe ready Meanwhile, i i i { z f : i g i i f : i i i i ff H i H Ui : a: g for that but they are likely goin closely to homebrew material . . . , St. Mike's wil beat" with Harvey, ace Montreal goalie, replacing Wo or other standouts, Benny Wolt of Fort Psutka of Kitchener to replace Ted Mclean and Pat on defense. .
