•Here is a memo sent out today announcing to staff the retirement of CTV News anchor Christine Bentley. This is a significant day in the history of our newsroom. After 35 years with CTV News, Christine Bentley has decided to step down from the anchor desk, and take on new projects outside of CTV. Christine will make the announcement on air in a few minutes from now, and this Friday’s 6:00pm newscast will be her last. Christine wanted you all to know about her decision before she makes it public. In 1977, Christine joined CFTO as an ambitious young reporter, fresh out of Barrie. She worked her way up to the Queen’s Park beat, eventually joining Ken Shaw at 11:30 PM on what was then known as Nightbeat News. Years later she and Ken re-teamed at suppertime, on Toronto’s #1 newscast. Today, Christine is a household name from Oshawa to Hamilton, and she is one of the most recognizable personalities in our city. She marks this career milestone knowing that she has helped keep CTV Toronto as strong as ever; both in quality and in the ratings.

Centre fielder Travis Skelton drove in three runs with a pair of hits as the visiting Leaside Leafs topped the Newmarket Hawks 6-2 to sweep a Greater Toronto Baseball League quarter-final playoff series Monday night at McKnight Field. Skelton hit a two-run double in the seventh inning off losing pitcher Adam Kallio to expand a 3-1 Leafs lead. The victory enabled Leaside to claim the series in two games and advance to the league’s four-team, double-knockout tournament starting Friday night in Thornhill at Bishop’s Cross Park. Mark West had two doubles and Liam O’Brien had a double and single among the six hits Newmarket recorded off winning pitcher Andrew Morales.
