ISC II Semi-Finals Added to Broadcast Archives – Games 91 & 92

Thursday, August 24th, 2006


We’ve added two more games to the ISC II Broadcast Archives at Ballparkradio, Semi-final games 91 and 92, between Rise Fastpitch/Tavistock and Micksburg/Palermo, respectively.

There is a bit of pre-game on Game 91 as we were making sure that our broadcasts were going out from the new location at Peter Hallman Field number 2, but you can skip over it and jump to the action.

Click here for the ISC II archive page at Ballparkradio.com, then click “Game 91 or 92” to listen. Remember the files are large so be patient as they load into your computer. You will notice that after the first time loading, the files load much quicker.

Favorite Maddy’s Photo from ISC II

Tuesday, August 22nd, 2006


One of my favorite shots taken by Maddy at this year’s ISC II Tournament of Champions in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Anyone know who the Harriston Mercury’s outfielder is? That hurts my back just looking at the photo. Great effort. He may not have caught the ball, but Maddy did 😉

There are currently five galleries up at www.maddysphotos.com, but these are only the preliminary galleries. Maddy is reviewing the many shots taken and will be posting more extensive galleries soon !

In the meantime, you can peruse the five galleries posted at this page (click menu buttons for Galleries 1 through 4, and one for “Kitchener”) And speaking of good shots, the one shown when you click the above link is a pretty sweet shot too.

By Blair Setford & Jim Flanagan

Tavistock, ON Merchants were heartbroken in 2004 in Fargo but they are champions in 2006 in Kitchener, defeating Palermo, ON Athletics 3-2 in 8 innings in a well-played championship game in front of about 3,000 fans on Peter Hallman Ballyard main diamond Friday afternoon … winning pitcher Steve Cook came on in the 7th inning in relief of starter Ryan Cummings with the score knotted at two … Palermo had jumped out to a 1-0 lead only to see Tavistock leapfrog ahead with a two-RBI single by Jamie Rader … the Athletics tied the game in the fifth as Chris McColl drove in Peter Dobbin … in the top of the 8th, Palermo was unable to score the runner placed on second as the international tie-breaker was in effect … in the bottom of the 8th, Mark McKay drove in Brad Roth with the winning run, setting off the celebration on the field and in Tavistock … Paul and Tyler Newman presented the Gord Newman Memorial ISC II Championship Trophy, named for their father, to Tavistock manager Steve Kaufman … earlier, Tavistock ran over the Perkasie, PA Rise 8-2 in the first semi-final … back-to-back home runs by Brad Roth and Kevin Thompson led the way while McKay was 3-4 with 3 rbi’s … Cummings got the win, going five strong innings with Steve Cook shutting down the Rise over the final two innings … Palermo knocked off ISC II strikeout king Corey Costello and the Micksburg, ON Twins 6-1, scoring single runs in each of the first three innings capped off by a three-run fourth, including a line drive HR by Keith Rankin and a triple by Brian Prowse … Gord Scott picked up another complete game win for Palermo … Costello pushed his tournament strikeout record to 101 with three strikeouts in three innings of work.

Thank you to the ISC II host committee, all the volunteers, the grounds crew staff, our ISC II game controllers, umpires, statisticians and broadcasters for a job well done in producing the 2006 ISC II Tournament of Champions … Hats off to all the teams, players and fans for making the 2006 edition of the ToC the best yet.
