Christ Church took the first lead in Game One on second inning, back to back, two out doubles by Tom Bennett and Andy Coates (RBI).  But that was Christ Church's only run of the game as they stranded runners after two out triples by David Stierle (in the fourth inning) and Mike Peak (in the sixth) and singles by David (in the seventh) and Jerry Hinton (in the ninth).  Harvey Browne took the lead in the fourth on a two run home run by Cam after a single by Jim.  Harvey Browne broke the game open in the sixth on a two out three run home run by Tom after singles by Jim and Fred.  The Final - Harvey Browne 5 - Christ Church 1.

Christ Church also scored first in Game Two.  In the third, Tom singled and scored on an RBI triple by Bob Stone.  A pair of home runs by Fred W and Greg gave Harvey Browne the lead in the fourth.  Christ Church edged in front in the bottom of the inning as Jerry, Mike Thompson (RBI) and Tom (RBI) singled, tripled and singled.  That lead held up through eight innings.  In the ninth a triple by Bob and a double by Greg tied the game and sent it to extra innings.  In the tenth, a three out home run by Tom provided the game winner.    The Final - Harvey Browne 6 - Christ Church 3.

Harvey Browne failed to score on three hits in Game Three.  Christ Church could manage only four hits but pushed across a pair of runs.  David tripled in the first but died on base.  In the fourth Mike P singled to lead off the inning and scored on an RBI triple by David.  Christ Church added an insurance run in the eighth on a home run by Vince Richards.  The Final - Christ Church 2 - Harvey Browne 0.
