Mustangs Bow
To Umatilla
And Stanfield
By James Monahan
Poor Heppner! When will It
stop? Heppner's blue and gold
baseball squad allowed the
Stanfield Tigers and the Umatil
la Vikings to Inflict the third
and fourth straight losses on the
Mustangs by 5-2 and 11-10 scores.
Bill Meade, the Stanfield hur
ler, stopped the horses cold on
4 hits while the big sticks from
Stanfield slammed out six hits
along with 3 Heppner errors to
drop Coach Larry Dowen's squad
5-2.
The "striped cats" opened the
first by drawing two bases on
balls on eight straight pitches.
Corey of Stanfield then stole
home after a play to second to
score the first tally of the game.
Heppner came back strong to
tie the score as Griffith beat out
a throw to first and was driven
home on a terrific two base blow
by Gentry Into left field.
Both clubs played no run ball
for the next three frames.
Stanfield bunched together
three hits In the fifth to score two
more runs.
Griffith tallied for Heppner In
the same Inning as he took ad
antage of two Tiger errors for
Heppner's last run of the game.
The last runs of the game came
In the top of the seventh when
Stanfield blasted out three singles
to add up two more runs for a
final 5-2 score.
Big hitters for the day were
Gentry who went 2 for 3 In
eluding a one run double while
Bowman hit 2 for 3 for the Tigers
' In winning their first baseball
victory over Heppner In the his
tory of UMC League, Umatilla had
to rally in the last Inning to score
4 runs and 2 hits to edge the
Mustangs 11-10.
Heppner, after leading 10-7
into the bottom of the seventh,
became careless and committed
two big errors which resulted In
the four important runs the Vik
ings scored.
Mustang hurler Mac Griffith
scored first for the Mustangs
when he was driven home by a
3-bag blast by Burke Gentry.
Turner scored again In the
second on a base on balls and a
wild pitch.
In the meantime, the "Vlks"
slammed out four hits including
a 3-run homer to Jump ahead of
Heppner by a 6-2 score.
The Mustang nine broke the
scoring column wide open In the
filth panel when they unleashed
2 doubles and a single to drive
home five runs.
Heppner added their final three
runs In the seventh with two hits
but could not quite total enough
to retaliate the four big scores of
the Vikings.
Irrigon looms ahead as the
Mustang's last encounter of the
year. The Comets are still win
less, and they have hopes of end
ing that streak at Heppner's ex
pense. o
