\nCanada East (Innerkip) ISC II Qualifier
\nSunday June 24<\/p>\n
Another beautiful day for ball in Innerkip. Things got underway at 8:55 am between Alvinston & Harriston, while the Port Elgin-Elmira game was delayed for 52 minutes due to some overzealous diamond watering by the Innerkip fire department. Harriston and Port Elgin won the early morning loser’s bracket games while Bucktown Bees, Phillip Martin and Lee Hopkins continued to confound and amaze, scoring three off Wyevale ace Jason Giffen in the first inning of the winner’s bracket final game, crusing to a 4-2 win. Harriston then dismantled Port Elgin 6-2 to meet Wyevale in the loser’s bracket final. Wyevale would manage only two hits off Scott Smith, both by Graham McNab, but he made them count, blasting a lead off home run in the top of the first and doubling him the game-winning run in the top of the 9th. McNab then came on in relief of starter Jason Giffen in the first final game after Giffen gave up five runs. McNab held down the Bees the rest of the way while the Tribe scored six in the bottom of the second and tacked on three more in the 6th to win 9-5. The \u201cif\u201d game was scoreless into the 6th, when Mike Kelly singled. Pinch runner Chris Bell stole second. Mike Lambie reached on an infield single advancing Bell to third and he scored on an RBI ground out by Cory Kelly. Jason Giffen came on for McNab in the 7th with two aboard and struck out the side to preserve the 1-0 win and the no-hitter. Congratulations to Wyevale on winning the 2007 ISC II Canada East (Innerkip) Qualifier.<\/p>\n
