MURRAY DAN AYKROY D SIGOURNEY WEAVER TSE SUPERNATURAL CO MEDY A well-rounded squad from Binbrook finally put away a determined New Hamburg team 4-1 in the 12th inning Sunday to lay claim to. the trophy and pennant as the top Junior C team in the Ontario Amateur Softball Association. Binbrook, which combined outstanding pitching — two - members of its mound staff won the top pitcher and MVP awards — with good defen- sive play and timely hitting, proved invincible throughout the championship tour- nament played at Winghatn on the weekend. It carried an unbeaten record into the final game Sunday evening and New Hamburg, which had lost to Binbrook 4-2 the previous evening, would have had to win twice to claim the title. They gave it a good try, battling the eventual champions down to the wire in the final game, which required five extra innings before it was finally decided. After falling behind 1-O in the 10th, New Hamburg, came back to tie the score and even after watching Bin - brook take a 4-1 lead in the 12th they battledback, coming within a whisker of tying the score once again in the bottom of the 12th. In the end, however, the stronger team prevailed and Binbrook, which had earned its spot in the tournament by knocking off last year's champions from Acton in zone playoffs, happily claimed the Ontario Junior C title. The score in the final game proved typical of the dose play throughout the tour- nament, with nine of the 14 games decided by one or two runs. The final developed into a pitchers' battle between Adam Smith of Binbrook and Dave .Christner of New Hamburg, with Binbrook outhitting New Hamburg 4-2 over seven innings but neither team able to push across a run. Binbrook finally drew first blood in the top of the 10th inning with an inside -the - park home. rin by Glenn Armes, whose long fly ball eluded centre fielder Mark Weber and bounced off the fence. By the time Weber found the .ball and was able to make a play, Armes had outraced the throw home. However New Hamburg, playing without its coach who had been injured in a traffic accident on the weekend, refused to fold and tied the score in the bottom of the inning on a tremen- dous solo blast over the right field fence by the tour- nament's top ' hitter, Steve Rock. Binbrook broke the game open with three more runs on four hits in the•12th, but New Hamburg again refused to give up and, with runners on first and seeend, Rock again stepped to the plate to face Martin, who had relieved Smith in the 12th. 'This time, however, his towering fly ballfailed to reach the fence Akild Weber in centre`field. One out later it was all over. All three of the tour- nament's individual awards went to players on .the two teams in the final, with pitchers Adam Smith and Dave Martin claiming the top pitcher and most valuable player awards respectively and Steve Rock winning the top hitter award. Smith, with a record of 2-0, had allowed only seven hits and one run in the two games, while Martin, with a 2-0 record and the save in the final, also drove in the winning runs in two of his team's victories. Rock, meanwhile, had a .438 batting average in the tournament and his clutch home run in the 10th inning kept his team alive in the final. BELMORE, WINGHAM ELIMINATED EARLY Unfortunately for local partisans, both local teams failed to advance past Saturday's playoffs, Bel - more, which had won the local zone, and Wingham Juniors, Who were in the tournament as the host team, both got off to im- pressive starts with wins in their first games but then dropped their next two matches to bow out of the running.

Eadie had 13 strikeouts and allowed only one hit in the game, while his team got solo runs in, the third and sixth innings and a pair in the seventh for the win. . The Wingham Juniors, meanwhile, posted a 3-2 victory over a highly -touted team from New Liskeard in their opening game. Kent Cerson went the distance on the mound for Wingham, allowing just two runs on five hits while striking out six. The Juniors struck early, with Kevin Coultes and Cerson scoring in the first inning to take a 2-0 lead. New Liskeard fought back with runs in the second and third inning to tie the score, but Wingham regained the lead with a run in the bottom of the third and then held on for the victory. In thenext round, Belmore lost a pitching duel between Eadie and Binbrook's Dave Martin when Binbrook managed to push across the winning run in the seventh inning for a 1-0 victory, Eadie allowed just four hits in the loss, while recording six strikeouts., but Martin was even better, shutting down Belmore completely.
