More about Senior B Gale Lumber Softball Team 1966 - 1970:
An Oshawa Softball Legend was born in 1965 when T.G. Gale Ltd. began sponsoring a group of Oshawa players.
Gales, led by sponsor and player, John Carnwith, finished the 1965 season losing to Kingston in the Eastern Finals for the Ontario Senior B Championship. However, in 1966, Gales became Ontario Senior B Champions, defeating Sault Ste. Marie. The Gales successfully defended their title in 1967, 1968 and 1969 by eliminating the same Soo team. The 1970 Championship series ended in a spectacular fashion with the Gales winning a no-hit game.
The Gales' achievements will always be a highlight in the history of Oshawa Softball.
