Masse allowed only four hits while striking out 11. Exeter had chances to score but stranded eight runners. They compiled six hits. Patterson had a single, as did Oliveira. Ryan Fairful had two sin- gles and McCutcheon and Smith added doubles. Playing their sixth game in seven days proved to be too much of a hurdle for the Express as they were defeated 10-8 by the London Stingrays Sunday. Two first-time pitchers did their best to hold the fort but had limited suc- cess. Derek Brown made his debut pitching three innings. He gave up five rims on only three hits but allowed 10 walks. Hummel had pitched one previous inning during the season. He lasted four innings, allowing six runs on eight hits. Aaron Leppington pitched the final inning, allowing no runs. The teams battled back and forth until the Express tied the score at 8-8 in the sixth. The Stingrays pushed across two runs in the bot- tom of the eighth for the win. Exeter hitters struck for 13 hits with multiple hits going to Patterson with three, Oliveira with two, Smith with three and Hawke with two. Exeter plays Strathroy at home Friday and are away Sunday against Lakeside. Crediton juniors lose close game to top team CREDITON - Crediton junior team ended its winning streak against the top - placed London South by a close 6-5 score. The local squad should be com- mended for its determined play throughout the whole game. South's pitcher was the best The girls Kelli Fulton added two single hits while Nikki Cyr started the game off smartly with a long hit into right field which she turned into a triple. Single hits came from the bats of Margaret Geurts, Megan Preszca- tor and Kerri Fulton's bases loaded single in the seventh inning helped Crediton take the lead. Dixon was the star pitcher on the mound notching two strikeouts. Jessica Bray played a smart left field grabbing a third base overthrow to quickly throw home for an out. Jessica Davies was again very steady at short- stop position cleanly picking up possible base hits and making an out. Crediton was scheduled to play Strathroy last night at home and head to Ilderton tonight for an 8:45 game. Carrie Crediton has seen so far this year and she notched 15 strikeouts throughout the game. With that many strike- outs, Crediton was still able to punch in some runs and even have the lead in the top of the sev- enth inning until its opponents came through with a two -out hit. Amber Pres- zcator led her team at the plate with a triple and a sin- gle. Carrie Dixon pounded out a double in the fourth inning and added a sin- gle in the sixth.
