The Tigers dropped a 'come - from -behind 5-3 decision to Kincardine in a Sunday game played in the Lake Huron town. The Dashwood club scored three times in the top of the eighth inning to move ahead 3-1 only to lose the game in the bottom of the same inning on one big blow. Larry Riggin, who was a member of the London Knights hockey team during the recently concluded hockey season bashed a bases loaded home run in the eighth to give the home club the victory. The three Dashwood runs carne across in the eighth on only one base hit. Bob Hoffman was safe on an crror and moved' to third to fill the bases as Bill Schadc and Dave Parsons drew bases on balls. John Hayter followed with a key single to send Hoffman and Schade scampering • home and Parsons was able to complete the bases cycle on a Kincardine error. Southpaw Jim Guenther went the complete nine inning distance on the Dashwood mound. He turned in a good performance in allowing only four hits but one was the fatal blow by Riggin. Guenther recorded an even dozen strikeouts.
