Toronto Stopped, 12-4, by Cleveland
The 1975 season did not get off to quite the start the Toronto Wolves had hoped, with an opening day loss to the Cleveland Foresters at Dominion Stadium. The final score was 12-4. Second Baseman Herb Reed was the top performer for Cleveland.

John Piper had a big 2-run double for the Foresters in the top of the third inning. With Cleveland leading 3-0 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he got a sinker from 29-year old left-handed pitcher Gary Preston and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 1st double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Foresters ahead, 5-0.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Foresters manager Ray Parsons.
