EAST HANTS HENCHMEN are just underway now I will send a report asap after the game. CP - I can't call but hope you got the revised-PEI-SASK report I sent about 2 hrs ago. Thanks NO PITCHING DETAILS AS OF YET...sorry just got the basic for that... GILL LEADS NL PAST QUEBEC in thriller at JR MEN'S SUMMERSIDE, PEI - Justin Gill's glove and bat allowed Kelly's Pub Canadian (Newfoundland and Labrador) to eke out a 1-0, eight inning victory over Quebec at the 2007 Causeway Bay Junior Men's fast pitch championships. Gill hit a hard single that brought home Matt Hill from second to score the games only run. Gill was also a star defensively as he sent a hard hit ball to first that got a Quebec runner in the fourth, while also handling a hot shot in the sixth to end a Quebec threat as they tried to get something going. But the speedy shortstop didnt take credit for the win. "It was a helluva battle, they are a great team," Gill said following the game. "It was a good game by two teams that played their hearts out. We managed to scrabble through and get a run in the eighth. "It was a team effort, I just had a few grounders yhit my way that I made plays on." Quebec had their shot at scoring in the top half, but NL kept them at bay. "Thats a big game win for us," Gill added. Francis Leclair had his perfect game spoiled in the top of the fourth Steven Strapps single. The Canadians had their chances to end the game prior to extra innings, but slugger Jason Hill couldnt manage to plate Ryan Boland from third in the bottom of the sixth. Hill was just named an first team outfielder at the ASA Nationals in South Bend, IN., where he played with the Farm Tavern. Sean Cleary went the distance for the win while LecLair went the distance for Quebec in suffering the loss.
