All of it was there as Big Bab Domik came on like the “White Knight” lifn'ling 42 innings " of ball within 48 hours. “He must have an arm of steel," muttered one nonplussed spectator as Bob ambled off the field dragging his spectacular right arm behind him.

But one “chucker” it was. It was more than enough. Danny Boyne had just zapped a ground single over- second base with one out and Domik at bat with effervescent Bill “Skip” DeGeer set to follow. “Have him bunt, have him bunt, and I’ll drive him in,” hollered a determined DeGeer. “All we need is a sacrifice. I’m going to hit this guy.” But DeGeer never got a chance to exercise his authoritative bat as Domik swung away and lashed a long drive which bounced off the fence in deep left field sending Boyne scampering home with the win- ning run. What drama, mother, what drama. It looked like the Jewellers would just be also- rans after they dropped a close 1-0 second game to Sault Ste. Marie and former Richmond Hill hurler 'Reno Pettenuzzi. The Jewellers blew the game on three errors and by their failure to capitalize on numerous scoring opportunities. Then came that third and easilv most spectac- ular game of the tournament. Everything was packed into this one. Especially arguments and one major fist fight. Richmond Hill looked to be reeling“ from its disappointing second game loss to Sault Ste. Marie and appeared to have suffered a major letdown. FIGHTING MUGSY Then came Al Mugrford’s brawling‘ presence into the picture. Big Al was bounced from the game by the umpire and almost precipitated a riot before he left the park. The game officials put the watch on A1 who at first refused to leave. Coming to bat in the bottom of the seventh and final inning“ of the tournament windup with the score tied at 0-0 between the Jewellers and Sault Ste. Marie. He had just finished pitching and batting his team to its third straight win of the day. It was easily Bob’s biggest moment of the year as he strong-armed the Jewellers to five wins out of six games. . DOMINATING DOMIK T for one couldn’t believe he did it. Don‘t see how he could do it.

George Dickey struck out but Pecchia then lined the first of his two douples to right centre- field bringing home two runs. Pecchia then scored as Red Wil- son singled sharply to right field. Second baseman Danny Boyne struck out to end the in- ning. DeGeer shook that one off, got back in the box. and the next pitch thudded into him again. DeGeer also got one on the wrist later in the game. Beaches rui- ing doesn’t provide a struck batter with a free pass to first base. Domik looked his sharpest this season as he put the Plat- ing crew down with a six hit effort. He walked two and struck out 12. Colley's wildness had him in trouble throughout the game.

A1 Mugford “as safe on a fielder's choice as a throw to the plate almost had DeGeer coming in but catcher Bob Neal dropped the ball. Mugford scampered to second on the erâ€" ror and Hancock to third. The Jewellers rode to victory on the strong pitching of Bob Domik coupled with a nine-hit outburst against wild-armed Bob Colley. The Jewellers jumped him for four runs in, the first inning off only two hits. The score remained the same until the bottom of the sixth when Markham took a short- lived lead. With two out Gar- field Halliday appeared to have missed a third strike and head- ed for first when the ball got away from Kent Catcher Bob Shelston.

Leading hitter for Kent’s was Alex Smith who added ‘ a single to his earlier triple. 1 First Baseman Tom Ashby and Centre Fielder Gar! Halliday had two apiece for Markham. While Kent's managed only four hits it's significant that no one struck out and most outs were recorded by the opposing outfield or good work by the lMarkham infield which handled 'a number of chances in fine istyle.
