Game 2 Box Score
Photo Gallery
McMINNVILLE, Ore. – Scoring 23 runs while giving up just one, defending NCAA champion Linfield delivered a fatal blow to yet another Northwest Conference foe, steamrolling Puget Sound, 15-1 and 8-0, in two run-rule shortened games Saturday afternoon at Del Smith Stadium.
Four Wildcat pitchers shared 10 innings of action, striking out 21 of 35 possible batters. Combined, they allowed a miserly five hits and no walks.
Linfield sluggers Staci Doucette, Karleigh Prestianni and Haylie Watson (Sr., Puyallup, Wash.) took turns clearing the outfield fence and the Wildcats jumped on UPS for six extra-base hits and nine stolen bases.
The top-ranked Wildcats improved to 12-0 for the season, 10-0 in the NWC. Puget Sound dipped to 2-8 both overall and in conference play.
Plating 12 of their 15 runs with two outs on the scoreboard in the second inning, the Wildcats made easy work of the Loggers in the opener.
Emilee Lepp went 2-for-4 with a triple and four RBI, shortstop Lisa Bennett tapped a pair of run-scoring singles in her first career start, and Jaydee Baxter went 2-for-2 with two RBI and a stolen base to pace a 12-hit attack.
The Loggers found themselves buried under a 12-run avalanche in the second inning as the Wildcats cashed in six hits and a couple of errors to take the commanding lead.
Prestianni smacked her fourth home run of the season to highlight the double-digit inning.
Wildcats starter Lauren Harvey threw three shutout innings before turning the game over to Montana McNealy (Jr., Aloha, Ore.) for the final two frames. The two pitchers gave up a couple of hits each and together combined for 10 strikeouts, six by Harvey, who improved to 6-0 for the season.
The Loggers picked up their lone run in the fourth inning when Aryn Grause hit a double of McNealy and scored on Elayna Van Hess' RBI double moments later.
The Wildcats added three inconsequential runs in the bottom of the inning, as McKenna Spieth (Jr., Vancouver, Wash.), Lepp and Lisa Yamamoto (Jr., Carson City, Nev.) took turns driving home runs.
Linfield played without middle infield starters Ashley Garcia (Sr., Beaveton, Ore.) and Katy Brosig (Sr., Forest Grove, Ore.), who were both attending a mandatory academic seminar.
Pitchers Karina Paavola (Sr., Kelso, Wash.) and Shelby VandeBergh (Sr., Beaverton, Ore.) teamed for 11 strikeouts while holding the Loggers to a single hit to complete the doubleheader sweep.
Doucette clobbered a grand slam in the game's opening minutes, part of a six-run first inning for the 'Cats.
Doucette later doubled and finished with five RBI, Watson homered and added three RBI to her season total, and four Wildcats snatched stolen bases in the contest.
Van Hess (1-4) started the game but lasted just one inning, giving up six runs, including five earned. Joleen Monfiletto tossed the final three innings, giving up three hits, two runs and a walk.
'CAT SCRATCH: Lepp hit two triples on Saturday, raising her season total to four. . . the Linfield single-season triples record is seven shared by Traci Barnes (1992) and Meredith Brunette (2008). . . Doucette's grand slam was the senior All-American's 59th career home run. . . Sunday's opponent, Pacific Lutheran, was the most recent conference opponent to defeat the Wildcats, taking a 10-2 victory on March 12, 2011. . . the Wildcats' 12-0 start is the second-hottest start to a season in program history behind the 2009 team's 15-0 season-opening spurt.
AHEAD: Linfield hosts Pacific Lutheran (11-5, 9-1 NWC) in a key conference twinbill Sunday at Del Smith Stadium. Game 1 starts at noon with the live internet play-by-play coverage starting at 11:50 a.m.

I agree wholeheartedly. I have always believed that both the dearth of Catholic priest candidates and the rampant homosexuality in the priesthood would be instantly solved if the church would cast-off it´s antiquated and unnecessary celibacy requirement.I´ll get flamed here by the "purists" who think there´s good reasons for it, but to them I say the same thing I say to liberals: it´s been your way forever and things are a disgusting mess. When will you capitulate?
Excellent HIT piece on Roman Catholicism.
#2, truth can be painful.
I´m confusedHomosexual priests = badHomosexual scout masters = good
When cool guys like Sam Adams, ex Mayor of Portland, have little flings with underage teenager boys it is no problem. When men like George Harasz and Doug Wirth sexually abuse the boys given to them by the Government no one cares.But honestly it is good that the Church is held to a higher standard - it is proof that people still realize what the Church actually is.
Obviously the author brings her extensive knowledge of canon law with her well researched and thorough understanding of the Church as an institution as she makes drive by assessments of the situation.As to the ongoing problem---- when was the last reported incident? These are not new problems because they have been addressed by again screening at the seminary level over the past two decades.The lavender mafias have been replaced, culminating perhaps with Mahoney in LA, a liberal favorite, but the Bernadines and Weaklands have been replaced.Replacing them and allowing local bishops to "decommission" as it were, errant priests was a cumbersome process both in local diocese and in Rome. Ratzinger in fact spearheaded the necessary steps both requiring Bishops to inform Rome and making it easier to "defrock" bad priests and show them the door.So I´m sure among the NPR crowd this sounds like the usual informed smug antiCatholic "truth". In fact it shows the ignorance and intellectual laziness of someone who hasn´t paid attention to the work of Ratzinger.Birds fly, fish swim, bigots bigot.
#2 and 7 are both correct.
I hear you #7. The media will always report that the Catholic Church is under crisis. They will not let this decades old issue to go away.I find it hard to believe that this reporter can not figure out that Pope Benedict is old, ill and can not fully carry out his duties. Which is why he stepped aside.
Did it ever occur to Nimrod Diane, and the other like-minded posters, that the problem is really in perception?Yes, the Catholic Church has had its pedophilia scandals, but in truth the incidence of such was no greater than in public schools, organizations, and institutions on a per capita basis. And every religion has had it too. Just last month a Jewish rabbi was convicted in NYC of molesting young girls.THE MAJOR DIFFERENCE is that sex scandals within the Catholic Church are gleefully covered on page 1 of the leftist rags, and are headline news on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN.I personally can recall reading stories (usually page A-19 or after) about pedophiles in public schools in CA, FL, KY, PA, NY, etc., pedophiles in protestant churches, pedophiles in islamic madrases.What we are reacting to is a problem that is greatly enhanced and publicized by the yellow journalists because of their deep-seated hatred of the Catholic Church and all it stands for. Why? The Catholic Church is opposed to artificial birth control, abortion, and homosexuality, which it considers sins--even while the Left considers them virtues.
The apostle Peter was married. Also read 1 Timothy 4:3.
How did the Catholic Church ever survive for 2000 years without Diane to tell it what to do?? /s
and who better to write a piece than an anti-American, dyed in the wool non-religious jewish communist..go check out the teecherz and homosexuals in the publik skools and give us something NEW from the MSM..
The majority of abuse cases, decades old, involved homosexual males and adolescent boys which is NOT pedophilia. Allowing priests to be married is totally irrelevant to this issue. While the way these cases were handled can certainly be debated, much of what was done was based on the recommendations from the mental health experts at the time.Sadly, all of this is of no importance to those who need to find any reason to attack the Church.
#&, I must borrow your wonderful line, "Birds fly, fish swim, bigots bigot."Thank you for that.
Need coffee....I meant #7.
More nonsense from the peanut gallery!
Sorry but the Catholic Church has been a corrupted organization since Christ was crucified. Things changed with the Apostle Paul as scripture tells us. No one needs to go thru a Pope or anyone else. The Catholic Church has simply tried to perpetuate a power structure for the sake of power itself. It´s no wonder it has crumbled under its own weight. Man is a fallen creature whether you be a priest, a Pope or a homeless vagabound. The wearing of flowing robes, pointy hats and swinging a smoking lamp might make you feel religious but don´t expect God to look upon it with any favor. Read the Bible and "rightly divide" it; it will set you free.
There is nothing about Homosexuality that is right. Their strident intent is to change the world. " Misery loves company". Just look what is has done to the church and continues to do today.
"the rampant homosexuality in the priesthood would be instantly solved if the church would cast-off it´s antiquated and unnecessary celibacy requirement"Because having sex at will cures homosexuality, right #1? Got it. Brilliant. Too bad those married Protestant ministers on the down low didn´t get the memo.
If you read the end of Matthew, John 20, the end of Mark... Jesus always delegates His authority to his disciples. In the modern world, we give powers of attorney or letters of authority; anyone reading those passages in the light of the legal practices of the time would realize that Jesus was......instituting the church. To those of you brought up in denominations that had to justify their split with Catholicism, my apologies..One other thing: anyone here ever see the play, The Crucible? What happens when the legal system institutes ´damned if you do/damned if you don´t´ rules? You get convictions. With all the money that could be legally extorted from the Church using the "recovered memory" precedents, you can´t see that a lot of the allegations were the crime?Aside from that, let me know if any of the news media are entitled to cast the first stone.
All the "reports" in the world do not a reality make (I should know; I work for the federal government). The Catholic Church has been under attack ever since Herod gave the order to have the babies murdered. (Hm, guess Roe v Wade wasn´t breaking any new ground there.)However, Jesus promised Peter that "the gates of hell shall not prevail against My Church." Well, to paraphrase the old song, Obama may reign, but... I´ll follow the Son.
Check out Michael Rose´ " Goodbye, Good Men" and you will get a whole different take on what liberalism´s plan is for the Catholic church as well as any religion that doesn´t bow to gay marriage and other tenets of the left.
I, too, think this resignation has to do with the scandals.Seems the Pope is considered infallible ONLY when he is talking to the people in the pews. Otherwise, the church heirarchy has the last word on whether to clean up this mess.
Thanks #10. #18, I guess you missed the "bigots bigot" allusion or you just went ahead and did it anyway.
#24, contrary to non-Catholic (and poorly catecheted Catholic) opinion, papal infallibility applies ONLY when the Pope definitively declares that some doctrine on faith must be held by the whole Church.To date, papal infallibility has been invoked exactly twice in Christian history: the Immaculate Conception and the Assumption.
#26... I humbly stand corrected.
That´s it. I´m converting from Catholicism to Islam. No issues with little boys there, or we´d be hearing about that ad nauseum too. Right?
The percentage of priests who have had "sex" with adolescent boys is below other measured or measurable group. This is even in spite of the homo influx that happened to seminaries in the 1970s. In the ´70s the hierarchy swallowed the lies that individuals with same-sex attraction could be celibate. Now we see that such "good thinking" seems in error.The media used "pedophilia" incorrectly when blasting headlines against the Church. The acts are almost always homosexual and, note, almost always 30 to 40 years in the past.
So, if the Church would relax its stance on priestly celibacy, we wouldn´t have priests having sex with young men and boys. Interesting thought. Did the previous poster mean the Church should allow these men to marry other men? Because I don´t think marrying a woman is going to solve a homosexual/pedophile problem (that is, a sinful problem) in these men.Sounds like the wife who wants the Church to allow polygamy, then her husband wouldn´t cheat on her.Goodbye Good Men is an excellent book.
LOL, #21 must have missed #7´s great line......."Birds fly, fish swim, bigots bigot."

Put a Middle Eastern spin on tonight's steak dinner. With fresh lemon and plenty of herbs like mint and parsley, the tabbouleh is a wonderful complement to the meat.
Heat the oven to 400°F.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring 1/2 cup water to a boil. Remove from the heat, add the couscous, 1 Tbs. of the olive oil, and 1/4 tsp. salt. Stir well, cover the pan, and let sit for 5 min. Fluff the couscous with a fork and spread on a large plate to cool.
Meanwhile, season the steaks on all sides with 1-1/2 tsp. salt and a few generous twists of pepper. In a small bowl, mix the cumin, thyme, and 1 Tbs. of the mint and rub all over the steaks.
In a large bowl, season the tomatoes with 1 tsp. salt and a few generous grinds of black pepper. Add the couscous, parsley, scallions, and 1 Tbs. of the mint and toss. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and 3 Tbs. of the olive oil. Add to the couscous mixture and toss well. Taste and add more lemon juice if needed.
Heat a large cast-iron pan or a large, heavy ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is very hot (water spattered over the pan will immediately evaporate), add the remaining 2 Tbs. oil and the steaks; sear, moving them only to flip, for 2 min. on each side. Put the skillet in the oven and cook for about 5 min. for medium rare. Transfer the steaks to a carving board and let them rest for 5 min. before slicing them into thin strips. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 Tbs. mint and serve with the tabbouleh and pieces of warmed pita bread.
This dish calls for warmed pita bread. If you've got a couple of hours before dinner and you're feeling inspired, make Homemade Pita Bread and grill in batches.

by CharlotteCook, 8/21/2008This was delicious! I only needed about half the dressing for the cous cous though. YUM!
by CelticKate, 7/15/2008This goes well with any steak. The tabbouleh is terrific and is a great side or appetizer.

Closing my eyes for long enough, the splintered visions are there.
Glimpses of warmth: they seem teasingly real. The fleeting images are exquisite in their beauty. Simple images of soft baby skin and a grown man's joy. All too quickly, they disappear. The dream is an illusion. My reality becomes the nightmare.
Our second baby was due sometime in April. The precise date escaped my memory. Maybe it fled to the place where my assorted hopes and unrealised aspirations now hide? Continue reading Sometime in April

Sent to a friend[1291] Sprint - Forced to upgrade
I added a new phone, the Sprint IC902 back in April 2008 and was told by the independent cotnractor, through Sprint that I could keep my same plan and minutes that I could still share those minutes with my other two phones. On my next bill, I found that I was being charged for two service plans. They refunded the second service plan that time, but said that they could not fix the service in June. The representative on the phone stated that I would have to uprgrade to a 1500 minute plan because ouf my hybrid phone. When we called to complain, Sprint keeps telling us that hybrid phones don't work with any other plan, even though we do not use the direct connect. There is no reason why hybrid phones are not interchangeable with normal phones and can't be on the same bill. Sprint is forcing people inot upgrading contracts and not correcting the Spring/Nextel problem even though the companies have been together for over 5 years.Posted 5 years ago

Whenever I visit my doctor's office, I have to fill out one form or another. Most of the time, the staff simply wants to confirm that my insurance hasn't changed, which I think is just medical jargon for: "Has your coverage been dropped?" Before my last appointment, they asked me about my medications and about any side effects I am experiencing. I never have any side effects, but I usually write down headaches, nausea, vomiting, hallucinations, decreased libido and heightened impulsiveness. That way they'll think I'm really taking all my pills.
Here is another question I had to answer: What is your nickname? I'd never been asked about this before and I really don't have a nickname, but they hate it when you leave a blank space so I wrote down "Sparky." I knew if somehow that ended up on my vial of blood, it would cause a lot of chatter at the lipid lab.
Next, the form wanted me to list any new drugs I'm taking. And then it asked: What is the frequency? I had my gout medicine with me, so I held it up to my ear, but I couldn't hear a thing.
My alcohol consumption was also something they wanted to keep track of. How many cans of beer, how many glasses of wine and how many shots of liquor do I consume in a week? I called my wife to see if she had any idea. "I buy you a case of beer a week," she said.
"Wait a second. I don't drink that much beer."
"Oh, you mean actually 'drink' it? You didn't say that. I'd say you ingest five beers a week. The rest of the cans I find all over the house, either knocked over by the cat, or warm and three-quarters full in the corners of your office.
There were some questions about my family medical history, requesting info on relatives who had died and their cause of death, including all four of my grandparents. My maternal grandmother died suddenly at 94, her demise the result of large whiskey sours before breakfast and two packs of Camels a day. This should be a lesson to you. I'm just not sure what the lesson is.
The next line inquired about the deaths of my aunts and uncles. We were never a close-knit family, but I thought my brother who still lives in New York might remember some of the details. "Hello, Peter, it's Dick."
"Dick who?"
"Very funny. I have a question about Uncle Sid's death."
"Oh, how sad. I'm sorry to hear that. When did he die?"
This wasn't getting me anywhere, so I simply scribbled in something to fill up the space — a cause of death that wouldn't raise any red flags. It was likely that no one ever looked at those answers, anyway. But apparently, I'm now quite the topic of conversation in the medical records department. I was told that of all the 2,000 patients in this internal medicine practice, I'm the only one whose aunts and uncles were all run over by a bus.

To get this watch Sam will buy it from Mike (third party). In this case, Mike is the donee beneficiary in Sam and Phil's exchange. If Sam went back on his promise, Mike would not sell the watch. Mike benefits but is not actually part of the contract.
Also known as a third party beneficiary. |
Investopedia explains 'Donee Beneficiary'
A donee beneficiary has no rights to their benefits if they do not know that a contract exists. But the donee beneficiary has a right to file for damages if he/she has vested. For example, if the donor beneficiary knows about the contract and acts on it (in the example above, Mike might build the gold watch), he/she can sue the purchaser if they cancel the contract.
