--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is the first game recap for Hunter's Ale House upset win
of the Kitchener Twins which I did for the local media on P.E.I.
 
Fawcetts upset Twins to open Sr. Men's with win
 
ST. JOHN'S , NL - The Hunter's Ale House Fawcetts have started
the 2007 Labatt Canadian senior men's fast pitch championship
off with a huge upset, beating the Kitchener Hallman Twins (Ontario
1) 3-2 in their opener Sunday afternoon.
Charlottetown trailed 2-0 before scoring three runs, one each
in the third fifth and bottom of the seventh to win the game.
It was import pickup Glenn Ormsby's big bat that did the damage
as he drove in two runs in the win. Ormsby played with the Orillia
Quaker Riversharks during the ISC season.
Jeff Ellsworth (1-2, two runs scored), Steven Larter (1-2, run
scored), Kelly Wenstrom (1-1) and Chris Craig (1-3) also contributed
to the win.
Dale Levy (3-3) had the big bat for the Twins, who come in off
an early exit from the ISC Worlds last week in Kitchener.
Mike Bishop picked up the win striking out eight in seven innings
work, allowing six hits. Todd Martin, in relief of Paul Koert,
took the loss for the Twins.
 
DAY 2 GAME (ONE GAME ONLY PLAY AT 8 PM VS NL 1)
 
Five run third rallies Alberta over Fawcetts
 
ST. JOHN'S, NL - The Stoney Plain Twiliters of Alberta scored
five times in the bottom of the third inning en route to a 7-2
come-from behind win over the Hunter's Ale House Fawcetts to
open play on Day 2 here at the Labatt Canadian men's senior fast
pitch championship.
The loss drops the Charlottetown-based Fawcetts record to 1-1
(won-loss). They are scheduled to face the Newfoundland and Labrador
No. One team, Impact Signs  in the main game Monday night at
8 p.m.
Against Alberta, Mike Taylor (1-3) and Barry Sullivan (2-4) each
drove in two runs while Shane Fitzpatrick scored twice in the
win.
Glenn Ormsby's third inning double plated Steven larter, who
walked, and Jeff Ellsworth who had singled with Charlottetown's
only two runs in the game. Ormsby finished 1-for-1 in the game
with a walk.
Ellsworth (3-4), Mark Arsenault (2-3) and Kelly Wenstrom (1-3)
supplied the hitting for the Fawcetts
Colin MacKenzie, a star pitcher in his own right in the International
Softball Congress, walked nine while striking out nine and surrendering
seven hits in the win 
Grant Patterson suffered the loss, giving up six runs on nine
hits, walking one and fanning six. Mitch Hardy pitched to four
batters in the seventh, allowing one run on  one hit and walking
one.
