Clinton News Record, 1954-06-24, Page 11PAGE TEN RCAF Raseballers Nip Strathroy With Late Inning Rally To Win 9 to 7 RCAF Flyers came from, be- hind in, the late innings of Tues- day night's ; scheduled Huron- Perth baseball game todefeat, the Strathroy Royals .9-7 in a spirited game that was played on the RCAF Sports Field. The game broke wide open in the first inning with the Flyers. getting ett] to George Evans for four runs on three hits and at error only to have the Royals come right back and shell Roe ' from the box with six runson six hits in the second frame, Meade was called from the bull -pen and stopped . the 'rally, forcing B, Pearson to pop to Garrow. From the second inning on a pitcher's battle developed be- tween Evans and Meade with the latter holding lois opposition to a lone hit and that was a home run by Paterson in the fifth with the basee empty. Meade was in a little trouble in the fourth when he walked two men but two 'strikeouts' and a weak ground ball to the third baseman ,got hire out of trouble: He was in complete control most. of the game with his amazing fast ball baffling the Royals re- peatedly. Evans allowed only. seven hits but the five eerors' that his .teammates made prove ed to be too big an obstacle. The best plays of the game. were made by Paterson, the Royal's centrefielder who caught a fly off the bat of Meade in the fourth after a long run, and by Pearson, the.. Royal catcher, when he picked Meade off first with a nice throw. The home run by`Paterson and Gillis triple were the only long hits of the game. Meade received credit for the win and was very impressive. He was inclined to •be: a little wild end showed on several oc-. $anions ` that - ' he had . trouble controlling his temper but he will certainly give the ,' batters around the league a lot of trouble with his blinding speed.
