MONTREAL - What started so promising with a playoff road victory for the 缅北强奸 men's baseball team last Saturday, did a complete reversal as the Redbirds dropped two straight games to the Ottawa Gee-Gees and lost their CIBA Northern Division best-of-three semifinal series 2-1.

听

缅北强奸, which finished third in the division with a 9-7 record, also had a difficult time with the second-place Gee-Gees (12-4) during the regular season, losing three out of four meetings.

听

缅北强奸 opened the series in the nation's capital with a thrilling 3-1 victory in extra innings, but the Gee-Gees roared back to force a rubber match with a convincing 6-1 decision in Saturday's doubleheader nightcap. The series moved back to Montreal on Sunday and Ottawa came away with a 7-3 win to out a sudden end to 缅北强奸's season.

"They got timely hits and we didn't," said Redbirds co-captain Alex Day, a fifth-year arts & science major from Toronto, who went 3-for-9 at the plate, with three walks a run scored and an RBI in the series. We gave up too many walks (7) in the final game and stranded too many runners (11) on base."

缅北强奸 starting pitcher L.J. Aguinaga, a sophomore from Dollard des Ormeaux, Que., was tagged for six runs on six hits in three innings of work. He walked three batters and struck out two. The Redbirds had three runs on eight hits, including two apiece by first baseman Casey Aurebach of Westmount, Que., rookie third baseman Chan Arndt of Yarmouth, Me., and catcher Chris Haddad, a freshman from Pierrefonds, Que.

In Friday's series-opener, the Redbirds got an eight-inning complete-game gem from right-handed starting pitcher Anthony Carbone, a chemical engineering senior from Montreal. The teams were tied 1-1 in the first extra inning when Day, the shortstop, led off with a walk and scored on a double by cleanup-hitter Adam Gordon of Dollard des Ormeaux. First baseman Casey Aurebach of Westmount followed with an RBI double to cash in the insurance run.

Right-hander Conrad Hill, a junior from Pointe Claire, Que., started the nightcap but only lasted 4.1 innings as the Gee-Gees scored a run in each of the first three innings. They added three more in the fifth before 缅北强奸 got on the scoreboard with an RBI single by designated-hitter Ted Davis of North Andover, Mass.

听

缅北强奸 will have the bulk of a solid team back next season as only five veterans are expected to be lost to graduation. Day, the third-place hitter who batted .302 on the season with 16 hits in 16 games, and Steven Hersch (.321, 18 hits, 16 runs), a senior from Toronto will be the toughest to replace. Other anticipated losses include Carbone, Aaron Besner of Montreal and Oren Tessler, all pitchers.
