#15 Bears Take Care of Oregon

Chelsea Spencer Earns Win No. 100 As Cal Head Coach

EUGENE, Ore. – The No. 15 California softball team hit five home runs en route to an 11-5 win over Oregon in both teams' Pac-12 opener at Jane Sanders Stadium.   It was the Ducks' first home loss of the season and the Bears' 16th road win.

Chelsea Spencer earned her 100th career win as head coach for the Golden Bears (21-2, 1-0 Pac-12) and Elon Butler had a career best 6 RBI in the victory, Cal's fifth win in a row.

The Ducks got on the board first when Ariel Carlson hit a two-out, solo home run off of Cal starter Randi Roelling. Cal had answered in all but one inning after the opposing team scored this season, but the Bears went down in order in the second frame against Oregon's Stevie Hansen.

After Roelling had a quick 1-2-3 inning in the second, the Bears did have the answer in the third inning. Kyndal Todd and Alyssa Herrera went back-to-back with solo home runs, making it 2-1 Cal.

The home run parade continued in the fourth as the Golden Bears went back-to-back again with a Butler 2-run laser and a Tianna Bell solo shot to give Cal a 5-1 advantage. Butler hit her ninth of the year the next time she came to the plate, a 3-run blast to right center and it was 8-1 heading to the home fifth.

Cal added three runs on three hits in the seventh and Haylei Archer got the final three outs in relief of Roelling to secure the victory over the Ducks (12-9, 0-1 Pac 12). Cal's five home runs were the most in a game so far this season.

How to fall in love via Deneuve Magazine Personal Ads Circa 1993

❖ Go to your mailbox and see that your latest issue of Deneuve magazine has been delivered. It’s in a plain brown envelope, but you still take it all the way inside the house before you open it.

❖ Take a moment to gaze at the cover and appreciate the fact that it’s named after Catherine Deneuve in honor of her sex scene from The Hunger which awakened us all.

❖ Flip past the first few pages of ads. Do I want to fax away for a brochure about the chance to go on a Kenyan photo safari with the world’s first out lesbian commedienne? What about the Olivia Thanksgiving cruise?

❖ Enjoy the Editor’s Column about how our new President Clinton has pledged to make real progress for the LGBT community. Bask in the warm glow of happiness knowing that the gay dark ages are finally coming to a close.

❖ Chuckle at Alison Bechdel’s ad for the Feminist Bookstore Network and wish you had one of those stores near you.

❖ Keep up with the state of the lesbian nation via the letters to the editor. Aren’t the repressive laws being passed in Oregon and Colorado shocking? Goddess bless that Kentucky baby dyke having to dodge the KKK at her high school 🙁

❖ Read the wedding announcements and get all choked up, remembering why you’re here. Resist the urge to flip to the end and see if there’s anyone new from last month. Hope springs eternal!

❖ Oh, the 20th anniversary of Naiad Press! I love their stuff! Especially how all the covers look like they’re printed with ink that was on sale. I wonder if they have any more copies of that Lesbian Queries book from 1990???

❖ Audre Lorde sure is gonna give them hell at the march on Washington, eh?

❖ So many bookstores. So many books.

❖ An article about Safe Sex! Hell yes! Even though lesbians don’t get AIDS because we’re God’s chosen people, this will be fun to read about in theory! “After all, aren’t we told that lesbians and priests are in the lowest risk category?” lol people thought priests weren’t constantly having gay sex. Simpler times.

❖ An interview with Alison Bechdel! She’s so swoony.

❖ Articles about soap operas, speculation about Hilary Clinton, gossip about Madonna and Sandra Bernhard. And what about Whoopi Goldberg? And that Ellen lady? She’s been on Arsenio Hall acting all cagy about the men in her life. A list of women we wish were gay, including Joan Jett? Didn’t she sing Crimson and Clover without changing pronouns like waaaaay back in the 80s

❖ Music reviews: Sweet Honey in the Rock and Alix Dobkin! We’re almost to the ads…

❖ Labrys jewelry, freedom rings. C’mon, let’s get to the good stuff!

❖ Here we go! Classified ads– 30 words for $20! Queer personal finance, we buy used computers, a lesbian resort in New Hampshire.

❖ Personals at last! Is my woman here?

❖ Hey there’s that woman who has an ad every month expressing her ‘complete and sincere respect for’ women in military, fire, police, private security, corrections’. A gay male ad would say ‘Uniform fetish’ but apparently we’re too delicate.

❖ Bisexual boston babe ‘femalely handsome’ looking for someone who’s ‘nice to look at, not a feminist and not a bitch’. Next!

❖ Lonesome in Wyoming, Bisexual Bodybuilder, Softball is over, time to find someone warm for winter, Reubenesque Arkansas Buddhist…

❖ Find a girl who sounds promising– seems interesting and is not too far away. Spend a day or so composing a letter with a pen and piece of paper introducing yourself. If you don’t have a photo of yourself that you like, have a friend take one. Then finish the roll of film and bring it to the Fotomat and wait a day or so and then pick up the prints and hope you like one of them. Choose one anyway, and put it in the envelope with your letter.

❖ Get a stamp, hang it on the mailbox, never hear anything ever again.

❖ One month later, go to your mailbox and see that your copy of Deneuve has arrived.

¿Te imaginas conectar el primer jonrón de tu vida en un partido clave para avanzar a playoffs… y no poder correr para anotarlo? 😱 2008, Western Oregon vs. Central Washington. Sara Tucholsky conecta su primer jonrón con dos corredoras en base, pero al pasar la primera, su rodilla falla y cae al suelo. No podía continuar. Su entrenadora preguntó al árbitro qué pasaría si sus compañeras la ayudaban, y la respuesta fue clara: el batazo solo contaría como un sencillo de dos carreras. Pero en las reglas no se mencionaba nada sobre recibir ayuda del equipo rival. Fue entonces cuando dos jugadoras del equipo contrario hicieron algo increíble: cargaron a Tucholsky hasta el home plate, asegurándose de que su jonrón contara. Un gesto de deportividad que quedó para la historia. ⚾🔥 Pegó su PRIMER JONRÓN… pero NO PODÍA correr para anotarlo 😱 #softball #baseball #mlb #SaraTucholsy published first on https://www.youtube.com/@mario-rojas/

Random Facts about Olive:

Rory and Olive aren't together past her senior year of high school (I don't know who she would be with after him yet)

Her favorite color is Orange. Specifically a peachy orange.

Besides theater, Olive does softball. She is on a regional team that is not affiliated with the school. She is on the team from 10-19. At 19 she was running and ended up falling into a hole on the field and tore her posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). She doesn't play after that and her torn PCL is why she became a physical trainer.

She does theater every year of high school but doesn't do anymore after that. She also sings as she is a member of the high school choir from 9th-12th grade.

tw: teen pregnancy, tw: adoption

Madison Dekker who was an interior designer had welcomed her first and only child with her husband Anthony who was a lawyer back in March of 1994. They were happy and in love when the precious baby girl was placed in their arms for the first time. Deciding to name her Felicity Renee Dekker, it was soon a name that one was to remember. 

Felicity had a wonderful childhood, her parents gave her everything she wanted. Not spilling her to much though. She grew up loving to read, write, get her hands and knees dirty. A bit of a tomboy Felicity loved to play soccer and softball. She was mainly friends with boys. 

In high school , Felicity played Volleyball and Soccer and got mostly A’s. She ended up joining the dance team as a joke to her friends her Freshman year but ended up loving it. Doing it all four years, Felicity thought she was going to major in dance in College. 

Sophomore year of high school Felicity met and fell in love with Benjamin Wilkinson. He was on the basketball team and she’d dance for him, cheer him on during his games. They fell hard and they fell fast, spending every waking moment together. It wasn’t until Summer before their Junior year when things took a turn. A turn that changed their lives forever. 

She fell pregnant. Typical teen story, but it wasn’t. As soon as Felicity found out, Felicity told Ben and he took it well, they fought on what to do but Felicity had her mind set on adoption. They were young, seventeen year olds who had their whole lives ahead of them. Nine months had gone by and Felicity gave birth to a beautiful baby girl with Ben by her side. 

While she held her daughter for a moment, Ben asked once more if she was positive on adoption and Felicity said yes. They placed their daughter up for adoption with this wonderful couple. Felicity felt secure and thankful that their daughter was in good hands. 

Ben and Felicity eventually broke up during Senior year and the two graduated heading off to college. Felicity staying home in Oregon, ending up going to community college getting a degree in Culinary as she found herself loving to bake and college. After graduating, Felicity moved back home and is now one of the head bakers at 1924 Bakery.

Understanding the basics of softball, from its rules to the equipment used, can enrich your viewing experience. Here are a few things you should know about softball. What is Softball? Contrary to popular belief, softball is not simply a "soft" version of baseball. With its unique set of rules, pitching style, and a smaller playing field, it's a sport that stands on its own merits. The sport provides a different set of challenges, requiring agility, quick thinking, and solid teamwork. Key Rules in Softball One of the most intriguing aspects of softball is its unique run-rule, a rule that can prematurely end a game if one team is leading by a substantial amount. This rule keeps the spirit of competition intact and ensures a balanced playing field. Moreover, different divisions, such as NCAA D-1, D-2, and D-3 have their own specific rules, adding to the richness and variety of the sport. The Equipment: From Bats to Gloves In softball, the equipment used is just as significant as the players themselves. Understanding what goes into making a softball bat or a glove, for instance, can add a new layer of appreciation for the sport. In conclusion, there is more to softball than meets the eye. When you tune in to watch a game "on TV today," you're not just watching a sport – you're witnessing a symphony of strategy, skill, and sheer athletic prowess.
