pjs w the stguftylue tribune thurwfcy augurt it 1960 claremont wins tournament title bob redshaw may continue to win plenty of ball games within the next few years but it is unlikely he will ever heap more glory on either himself or his claremont team mates than he did on saturday after noon unwinding his right arm like a steel spring he mowed down the opposing batsmen like so many ducks in a shooting gallery brougham bowed to his mound mastery in the tournament semifinals and uxbridge experienced a similar fate in the title contest his double shutout performance of 90 and 60 was given a resounding round of applause even by partisan rival fans the slingshot hurler appeared so relaxed with each passing inning one would have thought he was merely engaged in a pregame warmup he coasted through a total of fourteen innings and from all appearances he could easily have worked through fourteen more the blazing hot sun which had noticeably weakened the efforts of his rivals failed to affect his speed or control throughout the twogame endurance test only a scratch single by veteran brougham infielder stu mcguckin robbed him of a nohitter in the opener he fired a stingy fivehitter at uxbridge in the final the powerful brougham batsmen appeared helpless at the plate in five of the seven innings they were retired in order seven were strikeout victims no man advanced further than second base he issued only one base on balls that to rival hurler lloyd pascoe in the third inning he was left stranded a fine run ning catch by centrefielder gord allman in the sixth on a drive by broughams rao ellicott halted a threat ened rally cleanup slugger ivan booth a usual long- ball hitter was as inept as his hapless mates he lifted a fiy ball to gord allman in the second went down on strikes in the fourth and bounced out to first sacker bruce redshaw in the seventh it was the same story all the way down the line in the fourth redshaw whiffed the side his victims were rae ellicott booth and jack bradshaw brougham starter lloyd pasc s wilted under the sweltering heat and gave way to frank stroud in the third he limited the claremont club to three hits and one run but jack rennies boys had already tucked the victory safely inside their duffle bags uxbridge batters fared slightly better than did brougham in the hitting department but they left five men marooned on the sacks even twobase blows by brian kennedy 2 and john hill failed to break the ice righthander redshaw confined the uxbridge safe ties to kennedy hill and bob risebrough he continued to employ excellent control and failed to yield a single walk he registered four strikeouts on offense bob redshaw was equally effective in six trips to the plate he belted a triple a double and a single he drove in four runs in the two games and personally counted two more ray ward never looked better he ripped three doubles through the infield and pushed three mates across the plate in right field he hauled down two wellhit drives and picked uxbridges john hill off at first base when the latter underestimat ed his throwing arm dave beverley fared well in spite of his eighth position in the batting order the agile receiver clouted two singles and a double bruce red shaw had a pair of hits both singles extrabase blows came from the bats of ken mcintosh doug allman and allan redshaw the latter slammed a triple off ux bridge starter jim noble but was picked off on a run down between third base and the plate gord allman had one hit a single also off noble john hill took over in relief on the uxbridge mound and twirled a one- hitter in four complete innings in the tournament opener uxbridge rolled over the altonapeachs entry by a score of 114 murray mcdowell a oneman hero in last years tourney was belted for nine hits his mates made his cause more difficult by committing a total of nine errors four hobbles came in the third inning dave fockler finished the game jim noble twirled a
