2 3 RON ST. LOUIS - 38/Coach If there ever was a little Big Man on the London Majors, Ronnie is that man. In his 6th season with the club he has a .285 career batting average. What this doesn't show is the many, many times when a hit was needed, Ron came through, when a fly ball was needed to the outfield, Ron came through, when a ground ball was needed to move a runner, Ron came through. He's now passing this experience on to the other players as ! coach of the London Majors.

LONDON, ONTARIO BIRKS~

Good Luck Majors!

The management and staff of Birks Jewellers wish the London Majors all the best for a successful 1988 season.

After a great year last year going 4 wins and 5 saves with a .368 ERA t and a 31 k to only, I say only 3 walks ratio this was to be an even better year. Unfortunately, Mike is on crutches after tearing up his knee approximately 2 weeks before we are to open the season. We are definitely hopeful to have him back this summer for his sake and ours.

One of the truly great pitchers to play in the Inter-County, Jon could move into 4th place in career wins and 5th place in career strike-outs this season. Jon's career ERA of .323 is exceptional when you consider the dramatic rise in averages since the aluminum bat. Another stat young pitchers can take a lesson from is his walks to strike out ratio, 452 k's to only 186 walks.

MATT GOODING - LF/RF He's entering his 13th 1-C season and 2nd with the Majors. Matt is one of the top 10 hitters of the modem era to play in this great league.
