Oa Wishful thinking This' may sound like some wishful thinking as far as weather is concerned, hut, we would like to talk about baseball this week and think about Warmer temperatures. The Toronto. Blue Jays are apparently • quite serious about shoring up their defences with a new catcher. The Jays went into the free agent draft and put a claim in for only three players and they were all catchers, Coming off their best season ever the Blue Jays. will ,open their 1981 home season on Monday, April 13 at 1A0 when they will attempt to extend a streak which has seen them win each of their previous four home openers. To do so, the Blue Jays will have to knock off the defending east division champion New York Yankees. Chicago, Detroit, Kansas City and last year, Milwaukee, have beenthe Blue Jays previous opening day victims. As has been the case ever since 1978, Toronto will both open and conclude their season on the road, As they did in 1978, they will face the Detroit Tigers in their season opener on Thursday, April 9, Following the three game weekend series with the Tigers the Blue Jays will return home where they will begin a 9 game homestand which will see them play host to the Tigers and Brewers as well as the Yankees. Interestingly, while the Blue Jays are 4-0 in home openers they have yet to win their first road game of the year. Toronto will close out the 1981 home season on Wednesday, September 23 against Oakland before heading out to the west coast where they will close out the regular season some 11 days later on Sunday, Oc- tober 4 in Seattle's Kingdome. For the third year the American League is operating under a balanced schedule with each team playing at least six home and road games against all other American League clubs. The remaining six games in the 162 game schedule will be made up with extra single games against teams in your own division. Toronto will have an extra home game versus Boston, Detroit and Milwaukee while they will play one extra road game in Baltimore, Cleveland, and New York. With there being seven teams in both the East and West Divisions of the A.L. there always has to be at least one interdivisional matchup to enable all 14 teams to be in action at once. This season the Blue Jays are the swing team with the majority of their games in the latter part of the season coming against western division opposition, The Blue Jays were 39-45 versus the A.L. West in 1980 with a 22-20 margin at home. The Blue Jays will play a total of 81 games in 79 dates this season at Exhibition Stadium. As well, Toronto will play host to the Montreal Expos in the fourth annual Pearson Cup Game on Monday, July 6 at 6 p.m. Included in the Blue Jays home schedule are 33 single day games, 44 single night games and 2 doubleheaders. The first twin bill is a Dominion Day twi-night doubleheader on July 1 at 5:30 while the se- cond one will be a Sunday afternoon encounter against the Milwaukee Brewers on August 16 beginning at 1:30. As well as Dominion Day, the Blue Jays will also have holiday, home dates on Good Friday, Easter Monday, Victoria Day and Civic Holiday. Need some help The Exeter Minor Soccer Association is already planning for the 1980-81 season. Secretary Martin DeBruyn called over the weekend to ask to pass on some information regarding the soccer group. The annual meeting will be held Wednesday, November 26 at 8 p.m. at the South Huron Rec Centre. DeBruyn said a lot of new blood is needed on the executive and to fill a number of coaching positions. Everyone is invited to the meeting. Anyone needing additional information should call president Ron Helm (Exeter) or secretary Martin DeBruyn (Crediton). It didn't play fair One member of the Buffalo Sabres hockey team missed a few games recently becaitse of an unusual ac- cident. He was playing a pinball machine in Chicago when he felt it wasn't playing fair with him. So he hit it a little too hard and his hand was cut by flying glass. The Sabre was Larry Playfair. A goad dinner There were a lot of people including this writer that enjoyed Saturday's poor man's dinner sponsored by the Exeter junior Hawks hockey team. Coach Ron Bogart indicated Monday morning that it was a great success and wishes to thank everyone for their support.
