Needing a victory over Waterloo CHYM'rs to stay alive in the Inter-City Fastball League playoffs, Cores were stung by a first batter inside-the-park home run by Waterloo centrefielder Gary MacGregor and never quite recovered. Gores did manage to tie the score 2-2 m the bottom of the eighth, but CHYM'rs came right back in their ha1tof the ninth to score the decis'we digit on a sacri- fice fly to win 3-2 and sweep the best<tf-three quarter- final 2Ak h The 29-year-old Stanley Park schqol teacher came to CHYM'rs this year from Big Bill’s of Kitchener Fastball League and by his own admission was baffled by the calibre of pitching in the lFE as he struggled to a .193 average. But he showed all the poise of a seasoned veteran as heunrenly stroked a line shot to the gap in left centre off Gore pitcher Bruce Eccles to lead off Thursday's game and with his speed and a slightly clause relay beat the throw to home cleanly. By Rick Oomph.“ . Chronicle ttports EM Cambridge Cores got run over by a Mac trek Thurs- day night. CHYM'rs now advance against the second-place Woodstock Twins in a similar bestof-three semifinal, which' started with game one in Woodstock last night. Game two is in Waterloo Friday at 8 p.m. with a third game if necessary back in Woodstock Sunday. It is truly amazing in all sports how it seems to be the lesser lights that shine brightest in playoff action, and with no offense intended, that was the case Thurs- day with MacGregor.

"And of course Joe (third base coach Adair) was telling me to go too. It would have been a much closer play had the throw been right on." . MacGregor also got the rbi on CHYM'rs second run. After Dennis Schmidt tripled in the third, MacGregor reached base on a ground ball that was relayed to the plate too late to catch the speedy Schmidt. But se- conds later MacGregor was injured when attempting to‘steal second; not only was he thrown out on the play, he was also banged in the head by shortstop Kel Becker's tag while silmultaneously twisting his ankle on the late slide into the bag.

This being my first year in the league, I was really nervous at the start, just getting to know the guys and all. “I think they called him (Stratheam) safe because the guy (Jim Ridden) Md his foot off the bag," said Moeser. Actually the way the throw came I didn't think he'd lRiddell) get to it at all." Shortstop Larry Brooks then provided the winning blow when he lofted a fly to straightaway left. scoring Stratheam on the sacrifice fly. Holliday. who twirled a most effective four-hitter, easily retired the Cores in order in the ninth to end their season and advance his club against Woodstock. In addition to MacGregor's homer and Schmidt's triple. Stratheam and Russell each singled twice and Bill Shaddick added aqingle to lead off the sixth. Decker's double in the eighth was the key hit for Cam- bridge, As Moeser explained, the best place to put down the squeeze bunt is to the pitpher. Both the third and first basemen are rushing on the play but of course the pitcher must deliver the ball from the rubber before charging and therefore loses valuable time getting to the ball. Despite allowing the run, CHYM'rs bounced right back in the ninth. Strathearn led off with an infield hit that caused a furor among Gore players and fans who thought he had been retired easily at first. Stratheam then went to second on a hot-smash sin- gle by catcher Brian Russell down the third base line and went to third when Doug Weiler bounced back to Eccles who forced Russell at second. “That's the sign of a good playoff cIub. to come right back with a run after they tied it," said Moescr. "We didn't let down at all, we just continued playing good aggressive baseball.“ “I also found the pitching a lot different than what I had been used to. Not only is it faster here, but they also have a lot more variety, more stuff on the ball. And when you face a pitcher you haven't seen before, you really don't know what to expect until you see him for the second time." Thursday’s contest was an excitingly strategic con- test, with no play executed better than Gores squeeze bunt by Dave Apel in the eighth that knotted the count at two. "We were even guessing it (sttueeze) but he (ApeU put it in the perfect spot," said CHYM'r field manager Glenn Moeser of Apel's manoevre, which saw him drop a roller straight in the direction of pitcher Ray Holliday, which scored Decker from third with ease. I'll have most of the weekend to rest it up I hope and should be ready to go for the next series." MacGregor, although he has been slotted in the leadoff spot but once or twice this year, has been Bee- ing'a lot of action lately. He played second base in game one as Larry Strathearn shifted to first to re- place the absent Bruce Everest, and Thursday, with regular centre fielder Paul Boileau missing due to work commitments, the versatile MacGregor ended up in that position. 607 BRIDGE ST. - 885-3139 WATERLOO, ONTARIO N2K Ir6, RAMON [7iirLLll CONSTRUCTION
