June 19th, 1985

The Reds are sending up Mario Soto (8-3, 3.10) and the Giants are countering with Terry Mulholland (4-5, 5.84)

So far against Soto I am 0 for 5. Yeah.

Them to change that.

I got in on the action right away, handling lead-off hitter Duane Walker's grounder for the 1st out.

I led off the bottom half by making good solid contact, lining it right to Soto. Bad luck. Bob Brenly hit a two out homer, though.

Giants up 1-0.

I got the 1st out of the 2nd too, taking a grounder from Alan Knicely. Then I did the same with Bill Russell's grounder for the 2nd out. Then the 2nd out in the 3rd inning, taking a Tracy Jones grounder. I was busy!

I came up in the 3rd with two out and nobody on. I broker that goose egg against Soto by blasting one to right centre and legging out a triple! Unfortunately I was left there.

Back at in the 4th, getting the 1st out of another Walker grounder and the 3rd out off a Bill Almon grounder.

In the 5th John Castino hit a solo homer! I came up with two out and nobody on and hit a deep fly pulled in by Eric Davis in centre.

Giants lead 2-0!

In the 6th I took yet another groundball, this one by Soto, for the 3rd out.
Later that inning, Soto walked Chris Brown with the bases loaded.

Giants lead 3-0!

The Reds came back in the 7th, A wild pitch scored Knicely. Then Russell scored Almon with a sac fly. I got Jeff tread way with a grounder for the 3rd out but the Reds were within one.

Giants up 3-2.

I cam duo that inning with one out and nobody on. Soto walked me. You know what is coming next. Stolen base #45. Stolen base #46. Sac fly by Chris Brown. Brenly and Terry Harper then hit back-to-back solo homers.

Giants up 6-2!

Mulholland finally had to leave in the 8th, after walking a couple. Scott Garrelts took over. He got out of it. In the 9th, though, he gave up three straight hits, scoring one, before giving way to Mark Davis. A wild pitch scored another. Treadway grounded out but another run scored. The Reds were within one run... but that is as far as they could get.

The Giants held on to win 6-5!

33-31

I went 1 for 3 with a triple, a walk, and a run scored. Oh, and two stolen bases.

The Reds have fallen behind the Dodgers, thanks to us.

Tomorrow we head down the coast to San Diego.
