John's didn't quit when the scoreboard showed two outs Tuesday night at' Riverfront Park, and this persistence paid off for the Irish as they dealt a severe blow to the Little Eight title hopes of the Joe Ponies, 5-0. All five runs were scored after two were out, and the rallies which produced the first three tallies didn't even get started until two St.

In the fourth inning. Bob Salvano singled and scored from first when Rease Merrill's fly balLdropped among four-Pony fielders in left field for a double.

Kevin McCrone then scored Merrill with a bloop single to center. The Irish started their two-run fifth with one out when John Sink reached on an error. But there were two outs when Ron Pelkey sent him around to third with a single. Sink scored and Pelkey took third when the throw-in was wild, and Pelkey wrapped up the scoring on the third error of the inning, a. bad throw to first.

St. John's lumped almost all its attack on loser Jim Vidt into those three innings. In the other three frames, the Irish had just two base runners, and one of those was erased by a Pony double play. Meanwhile Pelkey scattered the six hits he gave up among six different innings and had two runners on at the same Michigan conference baseball championship when they meet Mus- key Stewart, Terry Wymer, Randy Behnken and Pete Brown, kegon in the LMAC title game Friday at the Muskegon diamonds Third-row Sonny-BowensEarlJWhitelow, Richard DeFoe, Team members are (Front row, from left): Nick Shushman, Gregg Knapp, Jack Light, Dave Mack, Billy Sullivan and Ron L.
