The game was a good one, with both teams turning in 0 fine effort. The Tigers came from behind twice for their victory.

The Kings shot ahead 6-4 when Bob Johnston, who sin- gled, and Phil Overholt. who hit into a fielder's choice. scor- ed in the fifth inning. Dick Bedard's hit was the key blow in the rally. The Tigers fought back in their half of the inning with three runs to take the lead for the remainder of the game. Dave Raiz singled and moved ino second on an error charged to Don O'Brien.

Don O'Brien pulled off a couple of sharp plays at third base for Zurich, while Bill Schade had four put- out and three assist at second base for the victorious Tigers. Dashwood _ 004 030-7 5 1 Zurich 200 220-6 7 6 Extra inning Win A large crowd turned out for the game Sunday afternoon in Zurich and saw a fine ball game that was not decided until the tenth inning. Jim Pfaff and Bob Hoffman were tied up in a pitchers' duel with Pfaff eventually scoring what was the winning run in the tenth inning. Pfaff gave up three hits in the third in- ning when Dashwood scored their runs and ended the day with a six hitter, He took six hatters on strikeouts and walk- ed three while hitting two. He did not allow a hit in seven of the ten innings he hurled and was given fine support by his teammates although they com- mitted seven errors. Hoffman also pitched a good game for his first starting assignment of the season. He worked nine innings before giving way to Guenther who was charged with the loss, and allowed two runs, six hits, walked three and had four strikeouts. Four of the six hits he allowed were doubles. Don O'Brien shared the hero's spotlight with Pfaff by driving in the winning and tying runs as well as catching a great game and setting Dashwood back by picking off a base run- ner at the start of the game and throwing out an attempted steal in the second inning. Bili Sehade came up with several brilliant fielding plays from short stop that helped Hoffman out of trouble for Dashwood. with Ratz handling 12 putout plays for the Iosers, Besides O'Brier,'s fine play for Zurich, Stade came up with 12 putouts. t.we of them on high pop -ups that were hard to han- dle in the sun; Wagner and Johnston each turned in a good game for Zurich in the infield, with McIntosh picking off three fly balls in centre field, Phil Overholt doubled to start the second inning and scored Zurich's first run when Wagner followed with a double. Ken Rader, who has been coming through with timely hits in the playoffs for Dash- wood, singled to start the third inning. Richard Rader follow- ed with a single and Mike Den- omme drove Ken home with a wrong field bit. Richard •also scored on 'the play when the ball eluded Overholt in right field to put the Tigers ahead 2-1, Roffman, and his sharp field- ing teammates, kept the Kings from scoring until the eight in- ning when Johnston walked, stole second and scored on the first of Don O'Brien's two big hits, which was a double. The Kings held the Tigers off the score sheet during the rest of the game and got the big run that ended the contest in the tenth inning, Guenther walked the first batter he faced, the opposition pitcher, Pfaff. Johnston sacrificed him to sec- ond base on a ploy that might have turned into a force out at second except that Pfaff was running on the built. He went to third when Stade grounded out. Then O'Brien banged a single off the encs of Schade's glove and the ball game ended when Pfaff crossed the plate with the winning run. What might have started into an incident developed when the Dashwood catcher, Vincent, kicked Pfaff's cap away from hint after it had fallen off his head and Pfaff had said some- thing to him. Words were ex- t hanged but that was all. Earlier in the game Art Rader took George Haggitt to the ground when he was forced out, causing words as well as mak- ing Haggitt throw the ball wide for one of four errors he committed in the game. When Haggitt was getting up he was bumped by Vincent who was advancing to second base on the wild throw, however Vincent was running on the baseline and even though he had the base easily made on the overthrow to first, he still had to make the base before he was safe, and was not as mulh at fault as the second baseman was on the play. much at fault as the second baseman, who was trying to shake off the first jolt, was.

The Kings were easy winners and played good ball both defensively and offensive- ly. Dashwood, on the other hand, were not. too strong at the bat and committed nine costly errors. Zurich also got the breaks with several hard bit balls taking wicked hops and shaking up the Dashwood infield, causing them to commit the errors. • The Dashwood fans did not have much to cheer about as their local idols went down to defeat. Art Racier had a nar- raw escape when a b -all he was playing took a bad hop and hit him on the neck and Bill Schade almost had a hall hit him in the face when it took a hard, high hop over his head. Bob Johnston singled, Don O'Brien reached first on R. Rader's error, Dick Bedard sin- gled and an error charged to Ken Rader put two runners in scoring position and scored one before a double by Rick Stade gave Zurich a three -run, first inning lead. Their lead went to 5-0 in the top half of the second inning. Jim Bedard walked, a sacrifice bunt moved him to second, and an error by Bill Schade moved him to third while Earl Wagner was reaching first. Another er- ror by Schade, one by Alphonse Denomme and one by Art Ra- der, allowed Bedard and Wag- ner abner to score, Bob Hoffman picked up the first Dashwood run after a walk and errors by Bob John- ston and George Haggitt, The Kings added three more in the Henson Bantams Host Ohsweken.
