Sylvan won by default over Lieury when the latter failed to field a full team, Sports Spotligh t By ROSS HAUGH. A large majority of area baseball fans continue to be disbelievers as far as the Toronto Blue Jays are concerned. While admitting to be an eternal optimist this writer is confident the Toronto club will continue some of their early form and while maybe not-hang on to be contender for the American league eastern, division charnpionship, at least be respectable, This optimism is certainly strengthened after see- ing the Blue Jays in action in Tuesday's rain shortened contest against the Seattle Mariners. When the rains came the Blue Jays were leading 4- 0 and had already chased Rick Honeycutt who at the time was tied with Tommy John of the Yankees with six wins and no losses. Honeycutt was tagged for eight hits in less than three innnings, but, the weatherman helped preserve his perfect record. The big difference this year is in the attitude, enthusiasm and desire of the Jays. Sure, these are cliches, but, they make the 'difference. The players this year not only believe in themselves, but, in each other and it shows on the field. New manager Bobby Mattick has completely changed 'game plans from Hartsfield and lets his players run, A prime example came in the first inning Tuesday night when Bob Bailor stole third. He got a tremen- -dous jump on Honeycutt and was sliding in before Seattle catcher Larry Cox knew what happened. He made no attempt to throw to third. While saving Rick Honeycutt from his first loss, the postponement probably cost Dave Stieb his fifth win of the year, Steib was rolling along nicely, giving up only three hits in the first four innings. He was helped immensely by great fielding plays by Bob Bailor and Damaso Gar- cia. We picked up an all-star ballot while at CNE Stadium. Two Blue Jays are listed, They are John Mayberry and Elfredo Griffin. The six Detroit Tigers up for all star recognition are Jason Thompson, Lou Whitaker, Richie Hebner, Lance Parrish. Steve Kemp and Allan Trammell. The Blue Jays suffered a slight setback Wednes- day night, but. from then on were in terrific form as they beat Seattle and Oakland by identical 1-0 scores, lost 4-2 to the A's in 14 innings and then swamped Bill Martin's team 12-1, Sunday. Bobby Mattick made a classic remark after Sun- day's game. He said, "I'm glad the Yankees are win- ning, too. We wouldn't want to be too far ahead of them when they come in for a three game series later this week. Clinton racing again Harness racing which has proved very popular in Clinton through the summer months for a number of years will continue again this year. The first day of racing will be Sunday afternoon, June 29 and will continue for the next 14 weeks through to September 28. The race meet is again sponsored by the Clinton Kinsmen club and a new secretary has been appointed. He is Dan Donnelly of Goderich, a very enthusiastic racing official. A number of stake races 'are being planned in- cluding the Ontario Harness Horse Stakes for four year-olds and the Trillium Series for fillies. Golfing to Wales One of Western Ontario's amateur golfers will be off to theBritish Isles in the near future to compete in one of the world's top tournaments. He is Ken Doig of Seaforth who was also well known for his hockey playing ability over the past 25 years or so. Doig was a one-time member of the Ex- eter Mohawks when they played in OHA senior' and in- termediate "A" ranks, Doig will be joining three other Ontario golfers when they participate in the prestigious tournament in Porthcawl in southern Wales. The other Ontarioites are Shane Randall of Peter- borough and John Nash Jr. and Don White, both from London. Ken Doig was a member of the Ontario Willingdon Cup team which won the Canadian championship in 1974 and also a member of the Canadian Eisenhower trophy team. Doig's hockey career was responsible for getting him started in the golf game. He started taking to the green when playing hockey in Scotland in the late 1940's. Best of luck, Ken as you take part in the amateur championship of the world. Off to Quebec When this issue hits the street Thursday morning, we expect to be well on the way on a four day visit to Quebec City and Montreal. The Montreal part of the tour will include a visit to Olympic Stadium. but, the Expos are idle that day.
