Tigers had a 3-1 fifth inning lead courtesy a two-run homer by Dave Dix and a solo shot by Dan Collison. but starting Waterloo pitcher Larry Crooke tired visibly in the late innings and Brantford gradually took over. Still, it was a gallant effort by the Brockville native, and not a bad effort by reliever Geoff Trasuk either. "There is no don! we're going to have to sit down and have a long chat about hummus.” But Dirt was not the only Tiger guilty of the cardinal sin. With the score tied 3-3 in the seventh, Brian Schnurr singled but was erased for the second time in two games on a pick- off. "Larry was throwing a bit back home but he really got tired tonight," said Payne. “It was good to see Geoff get in some good work though. But with only live hits, you don't get the haserunners and if you don't get haserunners you Am't win many games." That statement came from Waterloo Tiger field manager Alf Payne moments after he had seen his squad go down to their second straight defeat due to erratic running in Brant- ford Tuesday night.

Other Tiger hits went to Collison with a dou- ble and single and Dave Byers and Dave Dix with a single apiece. Scott Bailey went the dis- tance for Tigers, giving up only five hits, but three came in the disastrous eighth. Centrefielder Larry Fischer had two singles. Friday in London Tigers scored two in the seventh and one in the eighth to take a 5-1 lead, but pitcher Rick Williams got himself into a bit of a jam in the ninth and gave way to Mickey Collison who tidied up with the tying and winning run on base. "My arm started to get sore about the eighth in- ning," said Williams "and by the ninth I was throwing pretty much sidearm. I was really happy we got as many runs (five) as we did." Tigers rapped two London pitchers for 10 hits. Dave Byers, playing against his former mates, had two dou- bles while Dan Collison stroked three singles. Dunc MacDonald continued his streak with two singles and Dave Dix, John Lanteigne and Brian Schnurr had sin- gles. Lanteigne pulled a hamstring stretching for a throw against Hamilton and will be out of action for an unspecified time. It was no contest against Stratford Wednesday as Tigers built a 9-2 lead. Mich- ey Collison went all the way on the mound and Jimmy Taylor was sensational at the plate in his best offen- sive performance in senior ball with a double and four singles in six at bats.
