Sr. Tigers hope to stay in the hunt with Expressway series against Panthers And no one is doing more horse trading now than the Waterloo Senior Tigers who are hanging on by their claws to the hope that they‘ll get the eighth and final playoff spot in the tenâ€"team loop. While Major League Baseball pauses for its annuâ€" al Midâ€"season Classic, the local Interâ€"County baseball season is really heating up as the teams jockey for the final few playoff positions. Their odds of making the playoffs grew a little bit longer last weekend as the Barrie Baycats, the team holding on to the final spot, managed a big win against Guelph, while the Tigers failed to upset the mighty Toronto Maple Leafs. But im baseball, hope springs eternal and Tigers owner and general manager Robert Divell thinks a threeâ€" game home stand this weekend against the Kitchâ€" ener Panthers and Oshawa should tell theale Divell is particularly excited about what he‘s callâ€" ing the "Expressway Series" between the Twinâ€"Cities two big cats that goes Friday and Saturday night at Bechtel Park. Game time is 7:30 p.m both nights The Saturday night con test is one of 11 make up dates the Tigers have to play in the final stretch to finish out their 36 game schedule hampered by rain in May and earty June Divell said it‘s a chance for local ball fans to catch some quality baseball action in their own backyard But weather is no longer an excuse, and Divell is expecting some fan support this weekend by playing up the _ interâ€"city _ rivalry between the clubs. In addition to drawing a line in the kitty litter, the game will also feature playâ€" ers who have played for both squads, including Waterloo‘s own Adam Homnostaj who starts for the Panthers. Divell said familiarity breeds contempt and expects both teams to have their claws bared as they go tooth and nail against each other this weekend. And Divell said it‘s a difâ€" ferent Tigers ball club than the one the Panthers just squeaked by to start BOB VRBANAC the season. The Tigers are rearmed with pitchers Dave Hefferâ€" nan, Brad Earle and Justin Sâ€"year;100.000 km Powertrain Warranty with $0 deductible MORE DEPENDABILITY MORE SAFETY AND SECURITY. 5â€"Star Safety Rating‘ ABSâ€" Dual Front Air Bags Integral Child Safety Seat .
