Wellington Wins Prince County league Opener

-The i949 Prince County Base- ball League got away tn a. start on Sunday afternoon, June 12th when the defending champions, the Wellington Dodgers, played host to the Grand River nine, and came out on the long end of the score 21-7. Due to i-he lack of practice the boys committed a good many errors. but on the whole the game was greatly enjoyed by the large attendance of fans.

B. Ayers was the stand-out for Wellington. cracking out a homer and two doubles in five trips to the plate and handling six chances flawlessly afield. U. Cameron and F. Fitzgerald also contributed three hits, while DesRnche played a steady game behind the plate. For the Grand River team. which was re-organlzed after a year's lay-off and which ls com- prised of many young players, V. Morrison played a good game be- hind the plate. while B. McDougal pitched well but was the victim of many errors on the part of his teammates.

What looked to us like an un. usual play occurred in the gecond game between Meccan and Curggn 4s Brine. with two out and a Summvrside runner en thud ‘m; two strikes on the batter, the run- ner dashed for the plate. Just be- Iflre arrived the pitcher threw a third strike but the catcher dF°Pl>ed the ball. After the runner crossed the plate, the catcher pick. ed up the ball and threw the other runner out. at first. We argued 3nd We" Willing to bet our shirt that the run should have scored. After some sober refection and s glance at the rule book we have comg to the conclusion we would have lost the shirt if anyone had taken p5 up on it. We figure now that. whenever the ball thuddecl into the catchers mitt and fell out m; play that finally retired the side was on, and as the runner scored during that play his tally did not count. Jack Schurman maintained this from the first and since we get after the umpires every chance WQ llet. on interpretation of rules, We think it only fair to admit that Schurman won that round. The “i111! lookapreity obvious to us now, but. it ls easy to set confused on these matters in the heat: of ac- tion. Remember that the next time you criticize an umpire for ggq. ting one wrong.

New that we've paid our debt to "i! "mlllres here's for another crack at the gentlemen who Will all the arguments with ball-players. This one is not directed to any particular umpire but to the whole caboodle of them in this neck of the sporting world. We think most of them are a bit. lax on interfer- ence plays. We've seen some preg. ty obvious case-s of deliberate in- terference go unchallenged by the umpires even when the opposing side protested vigorously. Not. very 1on8 ago we saw a runner go down to second holding his hands high in the air in an attempt to pre- vent. a double play. The double killing was choked off and the runner committing the offence got away with it. We know the big leaguers will sometimes go into second as roughly as possible to try to throw the pivot man in a double play off stride but they have lo be pretty subtle about it. They wouldn't dare try anything as obviously illegal as the player mentioned above did. Clumsy ef- forts to knock the ball out of the baseman‘s hands. efforts that can be seen clearly hy anyone in the stands are apparently not: seen by the umpires. At least, nothing is

the blue-line. but. the umpire shut his eyes to the palpable infraction of the rules, although the oppos- ing side howled to high heaven at the outrage. Let's play baseball in

the summer and football in the fall. Most fans like it better that way.
