April 22nd, 1985

Home against the Dodgers. We've got Terry Mulholland going and they have Rick Honeycutt. Neither has eden well so far in this young season.

I was challenged on the very first play as Mariano Duncan grounded to me... and I threw it away! Two base throwing error. Unacceptable.

Thankfully he didn't end up scoring.

I led off the bottom of the 1st by grounding out to Dave Anderson at 3rd.

In the 2nd I came up with two out Mulholland on 3rd, after hit a triple to score Kenny Smith... and I hit a double! RBI! We were up 2-0!

In the top of the 3rd I took another grounder from Duncan, but this time handled it properly.

In the 4th I started a double play with John Castino to get R.J. Reynolds and Rich Dauer.

In the bottom of the inning I came up with two out and Terry Harper on 3rd and Castino on 2nd. I grounded out to Darrell Evans at 1st, but he bungled it and Harper scored! We were up 3-0!

In the 5th I made a great diving catch on a liner by Duncan - the 3rd time he hit it to me.

We scored two more times that inning. 5-0!

I led off the 6th by grounding to Dauer at 2nd... but for the second time this game, I took advantage of an error to reach safely! I quickly picked up stolen base #10. I then scored on yet another Dodgers error, this time by Pedro Guerrero in centre. Before the inning was over we lead 9-0.

In the 7th Dauer hit one past me that I think I should have reached. I took a pop up from Evans immediately after. Dauer ended up scoring. 9-1 for us.

I came up with 2 out and now facing Carlos Diaz. I smacked a triple! I then scored on a wild pitch! 10-1!

Mark Davis came in to pitch the 8th. I was the pivot on a double play started by Castino that got Guerrero and Dauer, but the Dodgers scored first. 10-2.

Davis stayed in for the 9th and I field a grounder from Larry See for the 2nd out.

We won this one 10-2!

Hey, was also heard that Chili Davis had won the NL Player of the Week Award! Way to go Chili!

I am leading the NL in Stolen Bases, one ahead of Alan Wiggins of the Padres.
