Second half of season to produce exciting games BY BRUCE BAKER The Goderich Men's Slo-pitch league's se- cond season begins next Tuesday. The playoff structure is set and ready to go, but the divisions won't be finalized until the last game. That's how close it is this year. Six teams have between 18 and 22 points. Two of those must go "A" while the other four go "B" division. Some of the key games this week are; if Chrysler can beat the Bulldogs and Elevators lose to Ideal Supply, then Chrysler would move from fourth to, second. Hats off to Canadian Tire, it looks as though they will make "A" division. Dear- born Steelers, with a win over Sifto could move to "B" if Murphy's Green Machine loses their remaining games. The possibilities are endless but my tithe is not. so let's put on the prediction hat for a minute. Division "A" seems to be wrapped up by Ideal Supply but trophies should go to the other teams that at least made the top divi- sion. Division "B" could be had by any of four teams, but the Coyotes are on a roll and that should help them. "C" division is a toss-up - inconsistent play put them there sti your guess is as good as mine! Anyway, between now and Tuesday, much more exciting things will occur. The GMSC is hosting 'it s sixth annual tourna- ment. DiVision two consists of 32 teams playingA usual A/B format. Goderich en- tries include Chrysler, Elevators, Garb and Gear, Ultra Mar, Bulldogs, Murphy's Green Machine, Auto Sates, Gas Rite and Century 21. Action starts Friday at 7 p.m. at the fastball and hardball diamonds. Saturday at 9:20 a.m., Division One begins play in a round robin, guaranteed four game structure. Top notch teams fro Kincardine, Hamilton and London, to name a few, will battle it out for three days on the hardball diamond. Any readers that think slowpitch is a game for ex -athletes, are advised to come out and watch a game or two from Division One. Our own Ideal Supply is in this division and we wish them the best of luck. Tournament chairman this year i§ Gary Nicholson. Members include Glen Sfflwartz, Ed Brunk, Tim Frawley, Bruce Baker and Ron Stewart. Once again, Hayters' fastball team will start the umpiring under the capable direction of Myles Murdock.
