July 1st, 1985

The Braves are in town and pitching Rick Mahler. The Giants are going with Mike Krukow.

I am 0 for 3 vs Mahler.

I got the 3rd out in the opening frame, taking a grounder from Ron Cey.

I led off the bottom half by flying out to Reggie Jackson in right.

Jackson scored in the 2nd on a passed ball by Bob Brenly. I got the 3rd out again, on a grounder by Paul Runge.

Braves lead 1-0.

I got the 3rd out for the 3rd straight inning on a grounder by Gerald Perry.

John Castino tied thing sup with a homer in the bottom half. I came up with one out and grounded to Runge at 2nd.

Game tied 1-1.

In the 4th Terry Harper hit a massive three-run home run blast! We also scored another on a Jeff Leonard RBI single.

Giant lead 5-1!

I led off the bottom of the 5th, now facing Steve Bedrosian, by legging out an infield single. I was erased on a fielder's choice by Kenny Oberkfell but took out Runge to avoid the double play.

Krukow ran out of steam in the 6th (after striking out TEN) and was lifted for Pat Perry. He pitched one and then Curt Brown came in for the 7th.
We helped him out with a Castino / Priske / Deer double play, getting Bruce Benedict and Runge.

I led of the bottom half, now facing Jeff Dedmon, with my second infield hit! I picked up stolen base #53 without Benedict even making a throw. They then walked Kenny O intentionally. After Kenny Smith struck out I picked up stolen base #54, taking 3rd. Deer ground out and though I crossed, the Braves turned the double play to end the inning.

The Braves jammed the bases in the 8th and scored one on a grounder as we got the 2nd out. Benedict grounded out to me to end it.

Giants still lead 5-2.

In the bottom half we got it back when Castino knocked Jeff Leonard home with a single.

Giants up 6-2.

Scott Garrelts came in to pitch the 9th. He did the job and we won our 6th consecutive game!

40-36!

I went 2 for 4 with two stolen bases!
