The Reds are still in town and we have Dave Linton on the mound facing Tom Browning.

Dave could really use a good game here.

Browning beat us already this year but we got out licks in. I went 2 for 4 against him.

Ken Oberkfell is back in the line-up. Let's do this!

Tracy Jones walked two lead things off but then Dan Driessen grounded to Kenny who tried for the double play. Jones took me out. Hard. So this i show it is going to be, is it?

I led off on the bottom of the 1st and Browning struck me out.

In the 2nd our bats did some damage, scoring 3 times - including back-to-back homers by Jeff Leonard and Terry Harper. They got one back in the 3rd. Dave was using a lot pf pitches, but keeping them mostly off the board.

I led off by flying out to Paul Householder in right.

Dave got pulled in the 5th for Curt Brown. Hey wore himself out and still won't pick up a win. Driven scored that inning, credited to Dave, though Brown was on the mound. I ended things by snagging a line drive by Alan Knicely.

In the 5th I came up with 2 out and Kenny Oberkfell on 2nd. I got thunked by Browning. No intent, I am sure, but this has been a painful game.

We didn't score and were still up 3-2.

I started out the 6th by showing out Mark Gilbert on a ground ball.

In the bottom of the frame, the guys got it going again, scoring 3 more times!

Pat Perry pitched the 7th. He allowed a couple of baserunners by stopped the Reds from scoring.

I led off our half by grounding out to Tracy Jones at 2nd.

Mark Davis came in for us during the 9th and the got the final two outs to give us the 6-2 win!

We are 7-9... though I wish I had a better game.

We've got the Reds again tomorrow.
