Two Teams In> Playoffs
With the elimination of the
girls’ softball nine last week two
teams now remain to represent
Exeter, Derry Boyle’s Bantams
and the ^Legion softball team.
The Bantams tied Zurich 5-5
in the first tilt but won the game
by default. The second game is
to ,be played in Exeter early this
week. The Legion nine meet
Goderich in the Zone finals. They
were to have played Monday
night in Exeter, However, the
game was called off and will be
played again sometime this week.
Eliminated In Close Match
The girls went down in the
last game by a close 3-2 count.
Kincardine had taken the first
two tilts before .Exeter rallied to
take the next game at home. If
they had won last .Wednesday
night in Kincardine the series
would have been tied. up. How
ever, Kincardine scored in the
seventh to break the 2-2 dead
lock and win the series, three
games to one. .
Kincardine’s pitcher led off
with a* triple to start a two-run
rally in the first frame. Then, in
the second Pfaff clipped a home
run to get one of them back and
Essery tied it up in the sixth,
leading off with a triple ,she
scored on Hodgins grounder to
second.
It was a tough one to lose but
it was also a good way to bow
out .of the playoff round. The
girls put up a good game in
which the score could have been
in either team’s favour.
The local lassies have played a
long schedule of 32 games this
season. They wound up on top of
their grouping and put out Dash
wood in .the league finals before
playing Kincardine. They are
now playing Clifford in a home-
and-home exhibition series.
Close Penant Races
.Speaking of ball, local fans are
following the American and the
National League penant races
with keen interest. New York
and Boston are neck and neck
in the American, while Brooklyn
is right on the heels of St. Louis
In the National. We should know
the winners this week.
