In Major little league ac-
tion this past week it was
Skyline over Highland Op-
tical by a score of 11 to 1.
Earle Birney was in fine
form, pitching a solid game
to the dismay of the
Highland team. Early runs in
the game saw Skyline take the
lead and hold it throughout.

A match between Stongs
and Capilano Lions on a
rainy night saw Ryan Taylor
of Stongs and John Dufton
of the Lions battle through 3
innings of solid pitching. In
the final inning, Stongs
scored two runs off the Lions
relief pitcher for the win.
Stongs returned later in the
week to defeat Highland Op-

tical by a score of 4to 3. A
key error in the field by
Highland led to three unearn-
ed runs for Stongs as they
continued to win this very
close game. Pitcher Stewart
Walchli shut the door on
Highland in the final innings
of play. Highland Optical
was pitted against Capilano
Lions in a high scoring game
last week. An_ eight-run
fourth inning keyed by a
fielding error early in the inn-
ing brought Highland from
behind. Peter Rae pitched the
last three innings to preserve
the win. Randy Kennett rap-
ped two long doubles in the
same inning to pace the Lions
attack.

In other action, it was
Stongs 9 and Skyline 8 in a
close match as brothers Rick
and Bob Burrowes pitched
Stongs to the win.-Stongs has
gone along--undeafeated for
some time but Capilano
Lions whipped them 9 to 2 in
a rousing game of baseball.
Randy Kennett of the Lions

was the major contributor as
Stongs was handed their first
defeat. Kennett pitched a
two-hit complete game and
also led the way at the plate
with two doubles and three
RBI's. Mike MacLeod also
drove in three runs with two
key singles.

It’s half way through the
season of regular play for all
teams in Forest Hills. At this
halfway point, it is obvious
that Stongs have a powerful
team to contend with this
year. Fred Walchli and Fred
Rabiner are responsible for a
tightly knit team.

In the Minor Little League,
Mac’s Stores are out front as
they were last year. Ex-
perienced coach Jum Rolston
with the assistance of Mark
Wittig and Gordon Axford
have done a fine job of turn-
ing out a spirited team.

In Peewee, the Dodgers,
Indians and Yankees are
neck-in-neck in the race to
the playoffs. As one
dedicated observer pointed
out, 1984 has seen a better
brand of Little League
baseball than in many a
moon.
