Just make contact. With two strikes against him and a fresh pitcher on the mound, the crack of the bat was all he needed to hear. Robinson, who had been swinging a hot stick all weekend, lined a ball past the outstretched glove of the third baseman to give his Prince George East Yankees a 5-4 victory against the Quesnel Padres. With the win, the Yankees claimed the ‘A’ Division championship in this weekend’s District Four Little League Icebreaker tourney. While Robinson says the hit wasn’t the biggest of his young career, he admits it was “close to the top.” Robinson’s single, which scored teammate Sean Griffin, capped off a game that very easily could have gone to the boys from Quesnel. With the Yankees up 4-3 in the top of the last inning, the Padres had the bases juiced and big-hitting Matt Powell at the plate. Powell, who blasted a shot over the fence in right centre field in his previous at bat, got all of a pitch and sent it deep over the fence down the left field line. The ball, however, was just foul. Had it stayed fair, the Padres would have had an 7-4 lead with just three outs to go. Instead, Powell had to settle for a bloop single that tied the game and set up the chance for the Yankees to win with a single run in their last at bat. “That home run going foul (was the turning point),” says Yankees manager Rainer Lippmann. “That was a great hit. He hit it a long ways.” In fighting their way to the tournament win, the Yanks, last season’s District Four Champs, showed they will again be among the top clubs in ‘A’ Division ball this season.

Still, the 12-year-old fireballer struck out 10 Quesnel batters in just four innings of work. A three-time all-star with probably the best fastball in the league, King got himself into several jams against the Padres but always managed to pitch his way out of them. After giving up the homer to Powell in the top of the fifth (which gave Quesnel a 3-2 lead at the time), he fanned the next three batters to end the inning and any further threat. “He didn’t have his good stuff but he battled hard,” Lippmann says of King. “The guys battled with him too.” The tournament brought together teams from all three Little Leagues in the city -Nechako, Freeman Park and Prince George East - and featured three divisions of play. In the ‘B’ Division final, the Indians tripped up the Dodgers 8-3 in a battle of PG East teams while in the ‘C’ Division, the Orioles were all over Nechako 25-0. CONTRACT MAINTENANCE SERVICES RFP NO.
