It was a tough way to lose.” The Bucks tallied three runs in the top of the third inning, scoring off singles from Ty Beers and Coo- per Roberts. The RBIs helped Pendleton knot the score at 3-3. Beers hit 2 for 3 with an RBI to lead the Bucks’ offense. Gabe Umbarger, Quinn Doherty, and Tan- ner Sweek all scored runs to tie the score. But it was Greyson Losee’s walk-off triple on an 0-1 count that held off the Bucks. Roberts fanned three Eagles, but surrendered three runs across five hits and six walks during three innings on the hill. “Our pitchers worked themselves in and out of trouble,” Haguewood said. “Chris (Large) came in and pitched some good relief, but it was just one of those ‘tough-luck loser’ scenarios.” Pendleton (4-6, 1-1 IMC) travels to Redmond for an IMC doubleheader on Saturday. Hermiston: Will host Pasco on Friday Continued from Page A8 “We need to make the adjustments with timely hits, and hit the ball solid,” Greenough said. Jenne struck out two and walked two in picking up the win. “She can bring it for her size,” Kennewick coach Patty Malloy-Flora said of her pitcher. “(Hermiston) got a few runs there and that got my heart going. They are a good hitting team, especially the top of their lineup.” Hermiston struggled in the second game, commit- ting five errors and getting just three hits off Jenne, who struck out four and walked two. The Lions put single runs on the board in the first three innings, then scored three in the fourth to secure the win. Stefani, Studer and Eliza Rodriguez all had hits for the Bulldogs, who will host Pasco on Friday. Warren hit a solo home run for the Lions and drove in two runs.
