Monday night in the re- turn battle in Waterloo ft was not even close by the end‘as Stratford jumped all over starter Dave Drago and reliever Jeff Schaefer for 19 hits en route to a 10-2 victory. Stratford got two runs in the sixth and another in the seventh at home and that was all they needed as Wa- terloo didn't score‘mtil the ninth but then saw their rally fizzle at just one rm. Monday's game was a lot cheer on the Whom-d for the moat part than the final verdict indicated, but really the writing was on the wall back games Thursday and next Monday with the highly-touted Brantford club.

"Re- member, he hasn’t pitched since Cambridge which was two weeks ago night. and he's still favoring that bad The score was only 3-1 after six, but then Stratford pelted the weary Optimist hurler for four hits and two runs in the seventh. Still Waterloo was not out of it " they loaded up the bases in their half of the se- vatttt, but when usually re- liable hitter John Bell formed on a bad pitch to end the inning, both Optimists‘ spirit and fortune: fell as Kmehlers went on to score four more in the eighth and one in the ninth. as Stratford bounced hits off Drago every inning but one until his departure in the eighth. Usually ' dominant force on the mound with his over- powering fastball and sharp- breaking curve, Drago showed little of his cus- tomary form as a recent ankle injury obviously af- fected his delivery. _ Drago wasn‘t at all helped by shoddy defensive work in back of him which on more than one occasion left him in a pot of boiling water when he should have been cooling down in the dugout with the side retired. Todd Schirtzinger had a pair of singles in both con- tests for Waterloo while Eric "autumn: doubled and singled Monday and Kevin Schnurr added a ninth-inning double.
