East Oregonian
The Hermiston girls
soccer team picked up its
first win of the season with
a Mid-Columbia Confer-
ence road victory over
Pasco, 2-1.
“There is a lot of emo-
tion,” Hermiston coach
Freddy Guizar said. “The
girls are excited for their
first win. This is a great
feeling and the girls are
happy.”
Trailing 1-0 in the sec-
ond half, Cydney Lind
scored with 26 minutes left
in regulation for Hermis-
ton to tie the score.
In the shootout, Jayden
Ray, Elsa Torres and
Jizelle Gonzalez converted
three of Hermistion’s five
attempts, while goalie
Lanie Gomez stopped two
of Pasco’s four shots.
“I’ve never been able to
watch penalty kicks, even
when I played,” Guizar
said. “Why start now? I
relied on the girls cheering
to know if we blocked it or
scored.”
RIDGEVIEW
4,
PENDLETON 0 — The
Pendleton girls suffered a
road loss when they trav-
eled to Ridgeview on
Thursday.
The Lady Bucks held
strong defensively in the
first half, only allowing
one goal, but stumbled in
the second, when three
additional goals made it
into their net.
“It was a pretty solid
game, except for the first
seven minutes of the sec-
ond half,” said coach
Paul Parker. “We had a
breakdown and never
recovered.”
Pendleton (2-7, 1-4)
will host Redmond (2-6-1,
1-3-1) next Thursday.
Boys Soccer
UMATILLA
4,
NYSSA 0 — After a “rigid”
start on a rain-soaked field,
Umatilla ended Thursday’s
game at Nyssa with a win.
“We maintained pos-
session most of the time,”
said Vikings coach Pedro
Ortiz. “We had some com-
plications from both teams
because of the rain, but that
also helped us a lot keeping
high pressure on (Nyssa).”
Umatilla scored two
goals each half. Jose Ala-
nis put the team on the
scoreboard early on with
a successful penalty kick,
and Jefri Coria followed
that with another goal 10
minutes later. Coria put
in another goal in the sec-
ond half, and Luis Castro
scored the game-ending
goal.
The Vikings (4-4-1,
3-1) will host De La Salle
North Catholic (3-1-3, 2-0-
1) on Saturday afternoon.
Volleyball
PENDLETON 3, RID-
GEVIEW 0 — Pendleton
traveled to Ridgeview and
kept a consistent lead to
take home their first win in
seven games.
The win came in three
sets: 25-12, 25-18, and
25-17.
“The
girls
played
aggressive and together
very well tonight,” said
coach Amanda Lapp. “Our
offense is coming together
at the right time this sea-
son. We’re seeing some
good blocked balls and
good defensive coverage.”
Elli Nirschl lead the
team with one ace, three
kills, 11 assists, and one
dig. Kirah McGlothan
recorded five aces and
seven digs. Carissa Cooley
had two aces and three
digs, and Zoe Jones had
two aces and one dig.
The Lady Bucks (4-10,
3-3) will travel to The
Dalles on Tuesday.
SHERMAN 3, IONE
0 — It took Ione one set
to see who they were up
against.
After losing the first set
to Sherman 25-7, the Car-
dinals made a comeback
in the final two sets, but it
wasn’t enough to salavage
the game. The Cardinals
lost the last two sets 27-25
and 25-19.
“We were a little ner-
vous in the first set, but
we went neck-and-neck
for the last two,” said Ione
coach Becky Wagenblast.
Ione (4-14, 2-7) will
host Dufur on Tuesday.
WESTON-MCEWEN
3, PILOT ROCK 0 —
The TigerScots continued
to dominate in the Blue
Mountain Conference, tak-
ing a 25-19, 25-13, 31-29
victory over the Rockets in
Athena.
“We played pretty
well,” W-M coach Shawn
White said. “Pilot Rock is
a good team and stepped
up and played really hard.”
Despite their record, the
TigerScots (19-3, overall,
6-1) dropped from No. 1 to
No. 3 in the state 2A poll.
Kennedy is No. 1, while
Grant Union is No. 2. W-M
will play the Prospectors a
3:30 p.m. Saturday at Stan-
field High School.
Bryce Thul led W-M
with 19 assists, 14 digs,
five kills and three aces,
while Hailey Weaver had
10 kills, Tyree Burke eight
kills, two blocks and four
aces, Jesse Manning nine
digs and four kills, and
Ellie Scheibner added six
digs and 10 assists.
GRANT UNION 3,
HEPPNER 0 — The
Prospectors (18-4, 7-0)
improved to 7-0 in Blue
Mountain Conference play
with a 25-12, 25-22, 25-21
road victory over the Mus-
tangs (11-10, 4-3).
“We may have lost the
game, but it was a heck of
a battle,” Heppner coach
Mindy Wilson said. “I was
impressed with our play.
We played with lots of
heart and effort.”
Sydney Wilson led Hep-
pner with 24 digs and four
kills, while Jacee Currin
had four kills, two blocks
and two aces, and Nicole
Propheter four kills and
two blocks. Aimee Turrell
handed out seven assists.
BREWERS: Bullpen is
dominate in eight innings
Continued from 1B
“Being in a postseason
a couple years back, it defi-
nitely helps,” Moustakas
said.
Chants of “Mooose!”
echoed around Miller Park
after the winning hit.
Game 2 is Friday in Mil-
waukee with Colorado’s
Tyler Anderson opposing
Jhoulys Chacin, who led
Milwaukee with 35 starts
this year. He started Mon-
day when the Brewers beat
the Chicago Cubs 3-1 in
the NL Central tiebreaker at
Wrigley Field.
Yelich hit a two-run
homer in the third inning,
then opened the 10th with
a walk against Adam Otta-
vino, coming back from an
0-2 count.
Yelich made his post-
season debut, though the
even-keeled star spoke as
if he had been through this
before.
“You’re just trying to
slow the situation down ...
find a way to get on and
make something happen,
put some pressure on him,”
Yelich said. “And Moose
was able to come through
there at the end with the
huge hit.”
Yelich advanced to sec-
ond on a wild pitch and
came home on Mous-
takas’ line drive to right
field. After almost winning
the Triple Crown this year,
Yelich got two hits, scored
twice and stole a base in his
playoff debut.
Josh Hader and the
Brewers allowed just one
hit over eight innings in a
dominant bullpen game.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass.
— On a night when he
reached 500 career touch-
down passes, Tom Brady
welcomed back a buddy
with one of his three scoring
tosses Thursday, then con-
nected with a newcomer who
could help him reach more
milestones.
Brady also sneaked in for
a rushing touchdown and the
New England Patriots put
together their second straight
win after a mediocre start to
the season, beating Indianap-
olis 38-24.
Brady’s 500th went to Josh
Gordon, recently acquired
from Cleveland, where he
basically was unavailable
through NFL suspensions for
all but five games over the
past three seasons. But, as
he often does, Brady spread
the wealth, hitting running
back James White 10 times
for 77 yards, and greeting the
return of buddy Julian Edel-
man by completing seven for
57 yards to him.
“We wanted to get him
the ball and he made some
great plays,” Brady said
about Edelman. “Just good
to have him out there. We all
want it to be perfect when
we go out and it was great to
have him out there ... healthy

half of an NFL football game against the Indianapolis Colts on Thursday in Foxbor-
ough, Mass.
and having fun.”
As for 500 TD passes,
third on the career list behind
Peyton Manning (539) and
Brett Favre (508), Brady
called it a collective mark.
“I think all these things
like that, milestones, there
are so many people that con-
tribute, all the people that
have really worked hard,” he
said. “A quarterback doesn’t
throw to himself.
“These are all great team
awards, pretty cool.”
The five-time NFL cham-
pion also tied Colts kicker
Adam Vinatieri, a former
teammate, for most victories
with 226. Brady finished 34
for 44 for 341 yards.
As everyone in Gillette
Stadium except, apparently,
the Colts knew, Brady started
off with a pass to Edelman,
who was wide open for 9
yards. That drew the first
of many loud cheers for the
10th-year veteran receiver in
his first game since the 2017
preseason, when he tore up
a knee. Edelman was sus-
pended for the first four
games this year for violating
the NFL’s policy on perfor-
mance enhancers.
“During the rehab you
are just sitting there and
waiting to get back on the
field,” Edelman said. “It felt
great to be out there with the
guys.”
DODGERS: Pitching staff gives up 6 hits
Continued from 1B
the NLDS.
Rookie Ronald Acuna Jr.
struck out twice and went 0
for 4 as the Baby Braves were
blanked. This was Atlan-
ta’s first playoff appearance
since 2013, when they lost to
the Dodgers in four games.
Joc Pederson’s leading
shot in the bottom of the first
rattled Mike Foltynewicz in
his postseason debut.
Foltynewicz gave up four
runs and three hits in two
innings. The right-hander
struck out five and walked
two. He got out of a two-out,
bases-loaded jam in the first
by striking out Yasiel Puig.
Foltynewicz found trou-
ble again in the second.
With two outs, he hit
Pederson and walked Justin
Turner before Muncy sent
a 1-0 pitch over the wall in
center, making it 4-0.
Enrique Hernandez hit
a solo shot with two outs
in the sixth off Brad Brach.
Pinch-hitter David Freese
added a sacrifice fly in the
eighth.
Ryu allowed a two-out
single to Freddie Freeman in
the first.
After that, he retired 12
consecutive batters before
a pair of two-out singles to
Ender Inciarte and former
Dodger Charlie Culberson
in the fifth. Puig charged in
on pinch-hitter Kurt Suzu-
ki’s fly to right field to end
the inning. The Braves didn’t
advance a runner past second
base in the game.
Ryu gave up another two-
out single to Ozzie Albies
in the seventh. With fans on
their feet waving blue tow-
els and the crowd of 50,947
chanting his name, Ryu got
Inciarte on a swinging strike-
out to end the inning.
Relievers Caleb Fergu-
son, Alex Wood and Dylan
Floro completed the com-
bined six-hitter.
