The Heppner Mustangs rallied
for five runs in the bottom of the
seventh inning in the second
game of a double header to beat
the Pilot Rock Rockets, 10-9.
The Rockets had won the first
game, 11-4, with the help of
three home runs.
The Mustangs used the suicide
squeeze to perfection as Shane
Matheny bunted with two strikes
to send home Cody Bellamy to
tie the game at 9-9.
Tim
Dickenson then laid down a
perfect bunt to score Derek
Gunderson to give the Mustangs
the wild win.
The Rockets' Tyler Green
threw a complete game three-
hitter in game one as the
Mustangs repeatedly had runners
in scoring position but couldn't
get the clutch hit.
The Rockets used a two-run
home run by Enckson in the
second inning and a two-run
home run by Alderman in the
third to build a 5-0 lead.
In the bottom of the third
Matheny reached on an error,
went to second on a wild pitch
and advanced to third as
Gunderson beat out an infield hit.
Matheny then scored on another
error on the short stop on a
grounder by Dickenson. Alan
Gribskov then doubled to left-
center to drive in Gunderson.
Chris Anthony then walked to
load the bases with no outs but
Green then settled down to
record three straight stnke-outs
to end the inning.
The Mustangs got another run
in the bottom of the fifth as
Dickenson got on by an error,
went to second on Gribskov's
fielder's choice, went to third on
a wild pitch and scored on
Anthony's ground-out.
The Rockets' Jared Labrousse
hit a three-run home run in the
top of the sixth to make it a 10-3
Pilot Rock lead.
The Mustangs' David Bates,
who had come in to pitch in the
third inning, hit a cool home run
over the fence in right field.
The Rockets came up with
another run in the top of the
seventh and the Mustangs
couldn't get anything going in the
bottom half and lost, 11-4.
Gunderson went 2-4 for the
Mustangs and Bates' home run
was the only other hit.
Game two saw the Rockets
jump out to another 2-0 lead in
the top of the first.
The
Mustangs got one back in the
bottom half as Gunderson
walked, stole second and scored
on Dickenson's double down the
right field line.
The Rockets scored two runs in
the third, three in the fourth and
two more in the fifth to build a 9-
1 lead. With a bitterly cold wind
blowing and rain falling, it didn't
look promising for the Mustangs
but the pitching o f Dickenson
and Dylan Pettyjohn shut down
the Rockets the rest of the way.
The Mustangs' bats came alive

film
"Repeat Performance", a new
dramatic film, will play at the
Christian Life Center in Heppner
on Sunday, April 19, beginning
at 6 p.m.
The film concerns Sean
Purchase, who is only 17, but
who has already experienced
emotional pain in his lifetime.
Abandoned by his mother as a
small child, Sean grew up with a
father who was too devastated to
give support to his son.
Sean thinks the world of his
father and wants to follow in his
footsteps
and
become
a
professional musician. But when
his father commits suicide, Sean
becomes even more withdrawn.
His father's girlfriend, Shona,
cannot make a connection with
him. The only ones who are able
to reach him are his friend
Aaron, his music teacher and
Shona's father.
A fatal accident occurs, and
Sean feels absolute hopelessness.
But then Sean begins to learn of
the power of forgiveness.
"'Repeat Performance' says
there is an answer...and the
answer is Christ's absolute and
unconditional forgiveness and
love," says a Christian Life
Center news release.
For more information, call
Pastor Tim Van Cleave at the
Christian Life Center, 676-5581.
as well to chip away at the lead,
scoring two runs in the bottom of
the fifth. Gunderson walked,
stole second and went to third on
a passes ball. Matheny then
walked and Gunderson came
home on a double steel.
Gribskov then had a hit to score
Matheny and close the gap to 9-
3.
In the bottom of the sixth, Tim
Sumner led off by getting hit by
a pitch and Pettyjohn ripped a
single to center field. Matheny
then had a clutch two out single
to score. Sumner and Dickenson
followed with a single to drive in
Pettyjohn to cut the gap to 9-5
going to the seventh.
Zach Fabian led off by walking
and stealing second. Josh Hill
then hit a little grounder to the
third baseman who threw it
away, allowing Fabian to score.
Sumner then walked and
Bellamy bunted and got on first
on a wild throw. Pettyjohn then
hit a sacrifice fly to score Hill
and advance the runners.
Gunderson then struck out but
beat out the throw to first as the
catcher dropped the ball. Sumner
scored on the throw to make it 9-
8 setting up the wild finish.
The Mustangs were led at the
plate by Dickenson going three
for five with four RBIs and a
double. Matheny went 2-3 with
two RBIs. Gunderson got on
base three times and scored three
times, including the game
winner.
With the win the Mustangs
improved to four and one and are
in first place in the Columbia
Basin Conference East Division
and seven and three overall. The
Rockets are two and one and 6-4
overall. Coming into the game
the Rockets were ranked ninth in

Plain Speaking #4
The "KICKER SUCKER"
If you pay state income taxes, you're undoubtedly aware of "The Kicker"
because of the State of Oregon checks like the one that came in the mail last
December. Remember, when you receive one of those checks, it's not a
Christmas present from the State. It is, in fact, your money ... a refund of
excess taxes government took from you.
The kicker is a great idea. It was overwhelmingly adopted (10 to 1) by
Oregon voters in 1979. The beauty of it is that it imposes a discipline on the
state budgeting process. If we didn't have the kicker, you can be assured
they would spend every last penny that came in over budget.
The kicker has become a big issue in my debate with Lynn Lundquist.
Last Friday night in Halfway, for example, the first time I appeared in a forum
with him, I again pointed out that Lynn is taking credit for the return of those
kicker checks without telling people he sponsored a bill which would
eliminate virtually all future kicker refunds!

"Where Friends Meet"
That night in Halfway, a supporter of Lynn's
complained I was being "negative." I think not.
In the eyes of most Eastern Oregonians, double
talk is negative; the truth is a big ol' positive.

He said I was "180 degrees wrong" and that he had tried to "protect the
kicker by putting it in the Constitution." He did nothing of the kind and he
knows it. What this Kicker Slicker really tried to do was change the law by
raising the refund threshold, by three and a half times, and then keep all the
money collected under the threshold for his "Rainy Day Fund" < h b 2007). What
he was really putting in the Constitution was his Rainy Day Fund! ( h jr 37)
