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.
Refreshments are served Friday through
Monday with our big Free Admission dance
on Saturday at the arena. Hope to see you all
there!
