B THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, October 5, 1967 SPORTS B EAT --)ECCLES HIT HARD... By Eric Wesslby OF The Times Staff BOSTON RED Sox continu- ed to give their fans more fits and starts yesterday as the World Series opened, with St. Louis Cardinals leaving more base runners stranded than a team has a right to and still win. It's been a long time between World Series for the Boston club, who have had better clubs fall by the wayside in the stretch. This year's victory has to be a real feather in manager Dick Williams' cap. MANY A successful minor league manager has gone into the big leagues only to find that things get rough up there. Who can remember when Mel McGaha was the Toronto Maple Leaf skipper. He en- joyed tremendous success at the minor league level, win- ning pennants in the Eastern League and the International League, but managing clubs in Cleveland and Kansas City finished him as a manager. Neither club, !owever, has been noted for its success in recent years. A MANAGER, however, |s still only as good as the per- sonnel he can put on the field. Williams appears to have the knack of being able to pick out the tight man at the right time, something Joe McCarthy and Casey Stengel were able to do during their careers with New York Yan- kees. Williams, like hockey' Punch Imlach, has leaned is due for serious considera- tion this year's major league meetings. and Yastrzemski took Wil- liams' name out of the Bos- ton record book this year. An- other William's pet is Smith, whom Williams said could be the greatest hitter in baseball in a couple of years. Both Ya- stremski and Smith are pol- ished outfielders with few players willing to run against their arms. A COUPLE OF player deals engineered by Haywood Sullivan, however, had to be the things which put the Red Sox into the Series. Jerry Adair proved a valuable ad- dition in the field and at the plate after he was picked up from Chicago White Sox. And pitcher Gary Bell sure held up his end when he mov- ed over from Cleveland In- dians. CANADIAN BASEBALL fans are more fortunate than those south of the border. The World Series falls during our. Thanksgiving weekend holiday, so we get to see Mon- day games when played. No one has to miss work to watch the games, even when they start early in the afternoon. Don't be surprised if next year they switch the week- day games to night. The idea has been bandied about by major league owners and JACK HARPER takes his By GEO. H. CAMPBELL TORONTO -- Oshawa Pam Internationals won the Southern Ontario laurels in Ontario Ama- teur Softball Association Inter- mediate 'A' playdowns, last night at Goulding Park, in North York, when they unleash- ed a 12-hit attack to wallop Galt Slees 11-4 in the third and de- ciding game of the series. "Pams"' will travel to Kapus- kasing this -weekend, for the All-Ontario finals. It's doubtful if Galt's talented young hurler, Bob Eccles, still a few months away from his 21st birthday, has ever been belted around like he was last night and a crowd of more than 200 Oshawa rooters, more than two-thirds of the total atten- dance, enjoyed every tasty morsel of the victory. THEY CAME TO PLAY Right. from the first pitch, it was obvious that the Oshawa club had "come to play" and if the Galt team had any doubts, these were quickly dispelled by Oshawa's alert defensive play and plate power, displayed in the very first inning. Bob Mason walked the first Galt batter, Don Hubbard but when Jerry Pullin attempted a bunt, "Rich" March swooped in from third to glove the short pop and doubled Hubbard off first base. In the third inning and again in the fourth, Galt tried to confuse Oshawa's de- fence with bunts, Jack Sneddon got the runner at second on one and Gord Wilson gathered in the bunted "'pop" on the next one -- and Galt never tried an- other bunt, the rest of the game. With Oshawa leading 2-0, Galt got their first run in the fourth when Bill Doerfling singled with two out and scored on Eccles' towering three-bagger into deep left, over the fielder's head. Before the game was over, Eccles had collected a total of three hits, almost half of the entire Galt total allowed by Mason but three of their seven hits came in the 9th, after Osh- awa had put the game out of reach, Eccles and Swan each singled ... OSHAWA FANS ON HAND Pams Thump Galt In Third Game the game wide open with a five- in the 7th but Galt had to be satisfied with their lone run until the 9th when Ab Hen- shaw singled, Doerfling was safe on Mason's bobble and Eccles' third hit loaded the bases. Jack Rung's hard shot run splurge in the 7th. The rally was made up of Sneddon's mammoth triple to the fence, two Galt errors, two walks, to Pete Norris and Mason, Ray Suddard's sacrifice, singles by to the outfield scored Henshaw and Doerfling but Eccles was tagged going to third base. An infield error let Rung move around and he scored Galt's final run on an infield out. PAMS SCORE EARLY Oshawa got their first run in the opening frame. Lead-off bat- ter Jackie Sneddon tripled down the left-field line and came home on "Rich" March's single. In the third, March singled and moved to third on success- ive passed balls and came home on Paul Gibbens' sacrifice, to make it 2-0. In the fifth, Sneddon opened with a walk, took second on a wild pitch and stole third, then scored on Gibbens' perfect buns. The Motor City crew blew Gibbens and Alvin Tilk and Bob 7 's bl The winners added three more in the bottom of the 8th. March was hit by a pitched ball, Gibbens was safe on a mess-up of an easy double-play ball. Suddard grounded, scor- ing March and Norris topped off the Oshawa attack with a solid homer to far-away centre. Wilson had three singles for the winners, while Sneddon, March and Gibbens each had two hits. Only pitcher Mason went hitless for Oshawa and he drew two walks. Each pitcher had nine strikeouts.
