ST CLEMENTS/Kitchener Outlaws Bell Cartage Tournament Scarborough Force puts up another tournament win, this time in St Clements. The Elmira Expos came close but couldn't withstand the pressure from the Scarborough Force. Game 33, the "IF" game was over in the 5th inning with a Craig Buttar single that brought Aaron Trude home from 3rd defeating the Elmira Expos 6 - 1. A five run lead after 5 innings rule kicked in around 5:30 on a beautiful Sunday afternoon at the ball park in St Clements. The Force was held off the score sheet for 2 innings by Dan Martin. In the 3rd however, Scott LeBlanc doubled, Nick Dambrosio tripled, and Aaron Trude homered to pick up a 3 - 1 lead.

NIAGARA SNAPPERS June 1,2, 3 at Ker Park Twelve teams head to Niagara Falls this weekend for the 9th annual Niagara Snappers Shootout The Scarborough Force are in the BW Motors Div. along with Hill United Chiefs, (AAU Champs in Florida this past January,) along with the Port Elgin Blue Devils and another Lake Huron entry, the Port Huron Wellness/Gillies Fastball Club. The KW Cubs, 2011 OASA Champs, will play the MS Heating Div. Pool play will include the Lake Simcoe Lightning who were 2nd in the Woodstock/Crush May Two Four, the Wiarton Nationals ISC OCC winners in New Dundee last year and the Niagara Fury. Three clubs who were at St Clements this past weekend play in the Niagara Fasteners Div. along with the host Snappers. Those 3 clubs out of the Outlaw's Bell Cartage tournament include the "A" finalists Elmira Expos, the "B" semi-finalists Owen Sound VW juniors, and the Alvinston Indians. There may be some questions answered in Niagara. Will Scarborogh come out on top for the 3rd time? Will Hill United be as dominant in the Snapper Shootout as they were at the 48 teamer AAUs in Florida? Will the KW Cubs begin to establish a reputation as a top Ontario fastpitch club? Will the Blue Devils, the Expos and the Nationals begin to put more wins on the board and start to pull away from the field? Will Alvinston be able to improve on their 2012 start? and with a few teams idle this weekend, some of the big teams not yet ready for prime time..who will be showing up to fill a roster spot or two? The Snappers will be a big test for all these teams, some teams just getting the season underway, others building momentum, some pitchers hitting their groove and some batters just beginning to knock off the rust. A great weekend of fastpitch awaits. See you at the ball yard. MITCHELL METS Tournament...June 8 9 10th, Friday to Sunday There is a 16 teamer in Mitchell set for the second weekend in June...with a good mix of Intermediate and Junior clubs from western Ontario.. WATERLOO MIDGET HILLSIDE TOURNAMENT - Saturday and Sunday... Bruce Young has an eight team Midget tournament set for Hillside in Waterloo also on the June 9th and 10.. I have the Mitchell line up from Jeff Pauli. and will forward it next week, and Bruce Young will be sending me his line-up and schedule as well... SOUTH PERTH game of the week A good rain Tuesday at noon hour knocked the dust down for the Breslau Badgers home opener against the KW Cubs. The Cubs came out the chute early scoring two runs in the first...Grant Baechler singled, Adam Hiller walked, doing what lead off hitters do...Batting 3rd for the Cubs, starting pitcher Brad Thomson walked, setting up 2nd baseman Dan Mitchell's 2 RBI double. That was all the Cubs needed. Thomson started for the Cubs, allowing 0 runs, on 2 hits over 2 innings. Ryan French closed down the Badgers over the next 5 innings. The Badgers were able to close the score in the 4th, a Brandon Horn triple, followed by a Jamie Sutton RBI..but that was all the Breslau offence could muster. The Cubs defence were in mid season form. Ryan French had a nice 2nd out strike-out that catcher Grant Baechler converted into 3 outs with a great throw to 2nd to wipe out the hit and run play set up by Breslau coach Jamie Simpson. Andrew Phibbs took the loss for the Badgers. Great game, a 8;30 start and home in Waterloo by 10;30. Cubs off to the Niagara Snapper tournament this weekend. Jamie Simpson will have the Owen Sound Selects in Niagara as well... LEGENDS June 21st to June 24th..
