That's when Manager Casey Cripps waved in Domik and for all intents and pur- poses. the game was over for Newmarket. Domik struck out the two men after the one man on base was caught stealing.

Tuesday. August 25 saw the first sudden death play off match with Rosethorn, the fourth place finishers in the Inter-County League.

Over confidence. as happens so often in sport. nearlyzcaused an upset before the team settled down tb win 4- . Domik‘s larger-lhan-iife per- formance far overshadowed a fine pitching effort by Newmar- ket’s Don Dominas who was killed by one bad inning. the sixth. when the Jewellers scored their tieing and winning run on a walk‘ and three hits, two of them of the infield variety. That string saw Domik per- sonally put out 20 straight bat- ters by himself without the ball being hit as far as the inflield. He also struck out 16 batters in a row starting from the sec- ond inning and going through until the eighth when he walked his first and only man.

A capacity crowd looked on in awe as Domik came up with easily his]I most overpowering performance of the season. Spectacular, that’s the word.

Jewellers Lose Bulova Tournament A combination of timely Ancaster hitting, a rainâ€"sodden infield plus some dubious ball handling, spelled doom for Richmond Hill in the first two innings. The loss followed a Friday night 1-0 win against Oshawa Gales which carried them into Monday's finals. A five-run outburst in the first two innings Monday night was too much to overcome for Rich- mond Hill Dynes Jewellers as they dropped a 5-4 seven inning decision to Ancaster Provisioners and the ONE Bulova Watch Tournament. lET'S PLAY TENNIS BOB DOMIK Whiffs 18 In Row By Eric Girdle!- Phone 884-1605 Richmond Hill Lawn Tennis Association RICHMOND HILL. ONTARIO, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1970 After-game ceremonies Mon- day saw Ancasler presented with gold watches and Rich- mond Hill with silver ones as runnersâ€"up. Drennan pitched five innings allowing only one hit while Domik allowed none in two inn- ings and took the win. Richmond Hill managed three hits off Taylor. It was Dynes’ Boyne breaking up the game with a long home run shot over the left field fence in the seventh inning. Friday night‘s game was a duel all the way between the Gale‘s Ron Taylor and Rich mond Hill's Drennan and Dom- ik combination. \ Kinnersly then rapped a ldrive in the hole in the right ‘centre field srq'ing Hancock. Kinnersly was thrown out try- ing to stretch the double into a triple when he stumbled, al- most lost his footing on the wet ground, and was tagged out easily at third. Richmond Hill scored its final two runs in the sixth inning with Boyne leading off with a homerun over the left field fence. The next men went out but Mickey Hancock singled to left. The Jewellers scored again in the third on George Dickey‘s lead-off double. Dickey ad- vanced to third on Downing‘s ground out and went in to score when the return throw to third base went into the stands. The second inning saw Dren- nan getting the first two bat- ters out in easy fashion but then walking Max Shepherd. Ferry then singled Shepherd stopping on second. Both run- ners advanced on a wild pitch. Drennan appeared out of the inning when Kemp hit what appeared to be an easy grounder to Danny Boyne at second base. The ball got through Boyne’s legs rolling out into short right centre with both run- ners coming around to score. Richmond Hill got one run back in the second as Brown led‘ off with a triple and then: scored on Boyne's single. I ‘ Drennan got the next two men out but then Don Lee uncorked a lofty homerun ball over the right field fence scor- ing Kemp and giving the Pro- visioners a 3-0 lead. That first inning saw lead-off batter Brian Ferry reach first base when a Drennan pitch hit ‘him. He then went to second Von 3 passed ball and scored as Kemp‘s weak grounder skitter- ed by First Baseman Larry Brown. The ball appeared play- able but scraped by Brown's outstretched glove on the soggy infield for a single. would have got to him if time hadn’t run out. Chaisson fielded the ball but fired it home too late to catch Kinnersly who scored the win- ning run. Dickey was caught off third shortly after that and Dominas struck out the final man to get out of the inning with only two runs against him. Dominas purposely walked Downing to load the bases Vere Small struck out but Glen Van Every. a clutch batter if there ever was one. hit a nign agonizing bouncer to shortstop Chaisson. Kinnersly led the Dynesmen with three for three followed by Dickey with twa singles. The Jewellers play Newmar- George Dickey then hit a bounder to second base with Hancock beating the throw to the plate. The ball got away from Catcher Bob Fraser and Kinnersly also thundered home. Confusion broke out when the plate umpire sent Kinnersly back to third be- cause during all the action he. the ump, had called time. The Jewellers argued in vain. When the action started again Richmond Hill had Kinnersly on third and Dickey on second with one out. the Jewellers BACK ON TOP AGAIN Hancock scores easily and Kinnersly flies around second enroute to third. Except that fate steps in again, sticks out her foot, and Kinnersly stumbles halfway between second and third. He maintains his balance but is an easy out. 5nd of rally, end of game. What is the moral of the story? Very simple. (Continued on Page 12) Drennan does concentrate and he hits a slow roller to second base. Enter fate again. Easy out. Except the ball. aided by that soggy ground, runs gaily between the legs of Second Baseman Danny Boyne. Result, an error, two runs and it’s 5-0. Fate. Boyne is one of the most sure-handed gloves around. It’s life. But you don’t give up. You keep pecking away and. finally in the sixth inning you make it 5-3 with first man up Boyne hitting a homerun. This has got to be the start of something big. A comeback. Your hopes are dampened as the next two batters go out easily but the flicker of eternal hope beats all over again as Mickey Hancock singles. Then you’re back on top again as Derek Kinnersly booms a long drive which looks like a sure triple. Like life. You figure you’ve got it made, sewed up, and hang, a kick in the head. Enter the human element. For example: . Ancaster’s first man up in the first inning gets hit by a Billy Drennan pitch. A free ride to first base. Then comes a ground ball just to the right of first base which, normally, would have been eaten up but skitters past the outstretched glove of Larry Brown playing first base for a hit with the first batter, having gone to second earlier on 3 passed ball, rolling all the way home. In all fairness, the turf was soggy from the previous day’s downpour and was high adventure all the way. Then comes a homerun and you’re behind 3-0. You get the first two out in the second inning but the third guy walks, the second guy singles and both advance on a wild pitch. Still okay, two out. All you have to do is concentrate on the batter. TWIN HILLS MERCURY RICHMOND HILL ‘ MAVERICK ‘ MONTEGO ‘ METEOR ‘ MARQUIS ‘ CORTINA ‘ CYCLONE ‘ COUGAR ‘ FORD TRUCKS 889-7703 - We Service All Ford Products - 884-4441 show that about 50 percent of the new price isrreturned to the buyer on a two year old car. Not only are used car buyers willing to pay addit- ional for “air”. but a car equipped with the option sells much more readily than one without. In some areas of the southern U.S.. air conditioning on a used car is a must unless the car sells at a sacrifice price. If you decide to equip your car with air condition- ing. one precaution is in order: The mechanism is a specialty that requires specially trained mechanics and special equipment. For the sake of your future Satis- faction. be sure your dealer is ‘capable and willing to supply this service. The one thing holding air conditioning back from the widespread acceptance of automatic shift is the cost ($350 to $550). But used car sales auction figures now show that about 50 percent of the new price is returned to the buyer on a two year old car. It was all there Monday anti ThurEday nightofr last week when Bob Domik -â€" undoubtedly one of the best pitchers around the country â€"- came on to strike out 21 Newmarket batters in Dynes opening OASA win over Newmarket, striking out 16 batters in a row. The Jewellers came out againshAncaster just that one step behind and before the dust cleared they were behind 5-0 going into the third inning. They had that “what happened” look again. It happened with automatic transmission. Now it is happening with air conditioning. Auto industry economists are predicting that this year. factory installed air conditioning will be on 50 percent of all domestic cars produced. .That's a gain of 35 percent over last year and last year was up 38 percent from the year before. I’ve said it before but then I think the peculiar attraction about sport for me is the comparisons I draw between it and life. In other words, a softball game contains all the drama only on a much smaller scale of course. You lose a ball game, you don’t die. When an option becomes so popular that a used car becomes difficult to sell without it, that option is here to stay. Opponents were the Ancaster Provisioners who I figured, in all due respect, wouldn’t provide that much opposition for Richmond Hill. They didn’t, really, but they still ended up winners by a 5-4 count and walked off with the gold watches. The Jewellers ended up with silver watches which really isn’t all that hard to take. I’m still wearing the yellow watch I received as a gift from my parents for getting â€" and holding my first job. Except for being a day late all the time it still manages to wheeze along. MEMO FROM A CAR DEALER Following the fortunes of the 1970 Richmond Hill Dynes Jewellers is something akin to going up and down in an elevator. It‘s not only the “up’s” and “downs” that un-nerve you. It’s the constant fear that you’re going to be stuck betWeen floors. Travelled down to Old Glory CNE Monday night to watch (presumably) the Jewellers win the Bulova Watch Tournament along with gold watches and all that for the second straight year and for the third time in toto.
