A four-run rally in the bottom of the seventh inning Sunday gave the Woodhaus a 9-7 win over the Players and assured the league leaders of at least a share of the regular-season championship. champion-ship. With two games left to play, the Woodhaus now boasts a 15-3 record. Second Se-cond place is held by Doc's at 15-5. The Players-Woodhaus contest was a low-scoring affair until the top of the seventh inning when the Players exploded for six runs to take a 7-5 lead. But the Woodhaus put on one of its patented rallies in the bottom of the inning to regain the lead and guarantee guaran-tee the win. Bruce Colton led off the seventh for Woodhaus with a solo homer. Norm Smith then tied the game when he singled, stole second, then scored when the throw from the catcher went into the outfield. Following a single by Kim Boley, Brad Rucker wrapped up the win with a two-run homer. Rucker was the leading hitter for the Woodhaus with four-for-four, including includ-ing two homers and a triple. Howard Davidson had three hits in four at-bats for the Players. In other games played Sunday, the Woodhaus clubbed Ontario 21-5, the Old Men notched victories over the Mad Jacks and Ontario, the Yacht Club beat Meeks but lost to Jody's, Doc's edged the Players and won by forfeit over Prospector Square, Janeaux's knocked off the Mad Jacks, and a game between Meeks and Janeaux's Ja-neaux's was rescheduled. Sunday was not a good day for the Mad Jacks, who reportedly were feeling the effects of a Saturday night celebration in honor of the wedding of shortstop Todd Phillips. Still smelling of champagne and 100-proof vodka, they staggered onto the high school field at 10:30 a.m. to face the Old Men. For the first five innings, the Mad Jacks held their own against the over-the-hill gang. In fact, they had a 20-12 lead with only two innings to go. Then, their high living caught up with them.At the plate the runs dried up while in the field the floodgates opened. The Old Men scored 12 times in the final two frames to walk away with a 24-20 win. Outfielder Sam Circo made several circus catches for the Old Men, and had an outstanding day at the plate with four hits in five trips, including two homers. Bob Schapper and Jeff Birrenkott also had four hits in five tries. For the Mad Jacks, Dennis Hulbert had three hits, including a homer, and scored three times. s ft In - .m '' ' , v lyV fe if t Nursing a hangover, Mike (Miguel) McGrath seems about to lose it at first base. The Mad Jacks hardly had time to nurse their aching heads before returning to the field against Janeaux's. The result was much the same. They managed to score four runs in the first inning, but could add only two more during the final six frames and lost 15-6. Mike (Miguel) McGrath led his shaky crew with two hits in three trips. For Janeaux's, Tom Jacobson went three-for-five with four runs scored. Gary Kilgore also had three hits in five trips. Doc's, which has been on a rampage in recent weeks, won its seventh and eighth consecutive games on Sunday, Sun-day, winning by forfeit over Prospector, then dropping drop-ping the Players 13-11 with a two-run rally in the bottom of the seventh. Doc's was ahead for most of the game, but fell behind 11-8 when the Players rallied for six runs in the top of the sixth. Doc's tied the game with three runs in the bottom of the inning, then won it in the seventh when a fly ball off the bat of John Rusconi drifted over the head of the centerfield-er, centerfield-er, scoring two runs. Rusconi argued later that his hit was undoubtedly a home run. However, other witnesses said the center-fielder center-fielder should have been cited for gross negligence. The Yacht Club split a doubleheader Sunday, sailing sail-ing past Meeks 10-5 then getting buffeted by Jody's 10-4. The team wasted no time against Meeks, scoring scor-ing eight runs in the top of the first inning, then coasting coast-ing to the win. George Ulmer had two hits in three trips, including a homer.

At the end of five, Jody's was ahead 8-1. Two games scheduled for Tuesday evening were decided de-cided by forfeit. Doc's was declared the winner over Janeaux's (the team's ninth straight win) and Meeks defeated the Players. Play-ers. In games played last Wednesday, Prospector got its second win, 23-7, at the expense of the cellar-dwelling Ontario Miners. The Woodhaus squad sank the Yacht Club 18-3 and Doc's operated on Meeks, 29-12. In Thursday's games, Jody's Jo-dy's outplayed the Players 17-4 while the Mad Jacks dumped the Ontario Miners 22-5. The play-off games are due to begin Sunday following the completion of the regular schedule. The top two teams will be given byes; the third place team will square off against the fifth place team, while team number four will face team number six.

Junior Tennis Teams Dominate SL Leagues The Park City Racquet Club boys' C-2 junior tennis team will end its season today with a match against Virginia Heights to determine the league championship. The Park City team, composed com-posed eight- and nine-year-olds, finished in a first place tie with Virginia Heights at the end of league play, so a playoff was scheduled to decide the ultimate trophy winners. The match is set to begin at 1 p.m. at Liberty Park. If the C-2 team wins the championship, it would mean a three-team sweep for the Park City Racquet Club. The boys' C-l and girls' C-l teams both ended season play last week in first place in their respective divisions. The majority of the competing compet-ing clubs are from the Salt Lake City area. Trophies for the individuals on the two championship teams were presented at the conclusion of the final matches. A party also was held at the Racquet Club Friday in recognition of the 13 members of each team. Softball MEN'S LEAGUE STANDINGS Team Won Lost Pet.
