s PAGE EIGHTEEN YHE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE THURS DAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1949 BY €eo. H. Campbell Shan By W. R. WHEATLEY - Seigniory Club, Mentebello, Que., Sept. 22--(CP) -- Dick Borthwick, who beat rain and drakness and almost walloped par under the ter- rific weather handicap, carried oti Osh 9-1 shellacking they took up in Oakville last nig third game of the serious here a tay to Friday and that news was released around these parts early yesterday afternoon but subsequently 'somebody changed their mind and in the afternoon Oa Jaser ay have to be on Thursdoy as scheduled. This means that the Merchants have got to win tonight's game in order to regain their edge in this series. The 4th game of the 3-out-of-5 affair is booked for Oak- ville's diamond on Saturday afternoon at two o'clock (they have a rugby game booked for the same park later in the afternoon) and we don't know when or where the 5th game (if a 5th is necessary) will be played. It may be played on a neutral diamond and the two clubs may decide to toss for the game, At any rate, they go again here tonight at five o'clock and while there'll not be any attendance record broken tonight, it should still be a keen battle, with Doug. Sutton likely to get the call for tne pitching assignment. * J * Perhaps the least said about last night's affair in Oakville. the better. Actually, despite the rain, the diamond was in good shape.- Artie Clemence started on the mound for Oshawa, was shaky in the first inning--but so' was his support at one crucial spot when a double-play ball was muffed and two runs scored after this, However, Clemence was improving steadily untii the 6th mning when with the score 2-0, and two men out, runners on 1st and 2nd, playing-manager Geo. Ticcony for some reason, elected to walk Gilliam, who in three tries hadn't knocked the ball out of the infield. Since there was already a "force play" at every base with two men out, thie deliberate pass looked unnecessary but anyway, Clemence walked the batter to fill the bases and Ken Pollock, who had already had two solid hits, promptly banged a hard single to bring in two runs and the next patter hit the first pitch for two more runs to make the score 6-0. Obviously the strategy, which in the first place was apparently ill- chosen, back-fired but when Ticcony on the following batter, with the count one-and-one, suddenly just after Clemence had almost lost control of a pitch and thrown a ball, stalked out on the diamond to thumb Sutton out to left field from the bench and bring in Michael o pitch--without even addressing a word to Clemence--the Oakville a hollered at the Oshawa catcher not to blame the pitcher--and their remarks were entirely justified. It wasn't Clemence's idea to give the intentional walk and when the idea boomeranged--that was that. Displaying disappointmnt and a fittle temper at Clemence's expense was not warranted and what's more--once the score was 6-0 in the 6th inning--Iletting Oakville see another Oshawa pitcher at that stage of the series was perhaps not the thing to do either. Bring- ing Michael in cold from the outfield was no improvement--they promptly banged out 4 more hits for another couple of runs in the 7th inning, . * +» + ; However, all that's water under the bridge and it's up to the Mer- chants to get in there today and get the lead back in this series. Big Al Yarnell, 42-year-old veteran of baseball wars, stood the Oshawo team on their ears yesterday, They had seven hits--scaitered among seven players and only twice did Oshawa get two hits in one inning. Bill Dell's mammoth homer right out of the park, saved Oshawa from the white- wasp brush, but Yarnell made the Oshawa batters look ordinary yester- day. On the other hand, Ticcony, Cook, Kitchen, McMullen and the rest have been hitting hard throughout the C.O.B.L. finals and as a team, the Merchants were certainly over-due for an "off game". We think they can come back. tonight in fine style but they'll have to start hitting again, Their fielding last night was good, although two outfielders let drives roll through their legs for extra bases but on a grass infield for the first time in weeks, and it was slippery wet besides--the infield played real well, despite a couple of errors. We think Sutton can stop the "Oaks" tonight! . 4 % Oshawa Skinners did not play last night in Toronto, receiving a phone call yesterday afternoon to say the game had been cancelled.

It turned out to be a shoo-in for the angular Ancaster pro Wednes- fday and his brand-new title was a present for his two young children whom he had promised he would do his best. His best was a sparkling 286 -- two over par for the 72-hole jour- ney and seven strokes better than big Bob Gray of Toronty Scarboro whose game was wrecked after two successive two-stroke penalties on the final 18-hole round. Borthwick's victory was worth $400 as C.P.G.A. winner and a far gr. or undeterminate amount from the :dvertising revenue he can collect. Gray won $250, and from there on the money award was scaled down to long-drive taxifares of $5. The field of 52 starters trailed far behind Borthwick and a half- dozen or so dropped out. Gordie Brydson of Toronto Mis- sissauga, trying grimly to defend his 1948 title, had to settle for a 297, 17 strokes back of the leader.

He was nicked for seven hits but tie scattered them over the full distance and seven of the Osh- awa players had to share the to- | tal, nobody getting more than one safe hit. : Only' twice could Oshawa get more than one hit in any inning.

Eric Toletzka in right field for the Oaks hadfive putouts last night, a big night's work for any outfielder and at least two of them were labeled drives. Dell Clouts Homer Bill Dell saved Oshawa from the whitewash brush with a mammoth clout right over the park and over some fairly high trees outside the park, in the left field, about 360 feet from the plate.

KINER PASSES HIS OWN MARK OF 51 HOMERS Pittsburgh, Sept. 22 -- (AP) Home run No. 52 is in the record book -- with nine games still t® go -- but Ralph Kiner says he doesn't have a batboy's chance to tying Bake Ruth's mighty 60. "I simply Lave too much catch- ing up to do," grinned the big Pittsburgh Pirate left fielder. He didn't seem too unhappy about it. In fact, he had been in a jovial mood ever since the thira inning of the Boston Braves game Wednesday night when he hoistcd one of Bill Voiselle's curves over the left field score-board. That tied his own personal record at 51, the same as he got in 1947. Then he repeated the trick, same place and same pitcher, in the sixth inning to set a new mark for himself. The three runs batted in gave Kiner 122 for the season and put him three ahead of Brooklyn's Jackie Robinson for the league leadership. Asked about his chances of cracking Hack Wilson's National League record of 56, Kiner said: "I'm just going to try to hit the ball, I'm not worrying about any records." Kiner's homers last night were his 13th and 14th of the month, "Babe Ruth hit 22 of his in Sep tember," commented Ralph. "That's what makes his record all the more remarkable."
