August 6th, 1985

Today the Giants are going with Randy Morse (0-0, 6.00) in his 2nd outing.

The Astros are pitching Ray Burris (10-5, 3.78).

Looks like a mismatch, but we have faith in Randy.

I have gone 1 for 6 vs Burris.

I lead off the game by popping out to Keith Hernandez at 1st.

I made the first out on offence so it is only fair that I made the first out on defense - taking a Bill Doran grounder.

I came up in the 3rd with none out and Morse standing on 1st. He hit the 2nd pitch into the left field corner for a double, moving Randy to 3rd. Mike Jones then walked to load the bases. Chili Davis singled and both Randy and I scored. Rob Deer struck out and Chris Brown grounded out, moving Jones and Chili to scoring positions. Lee Mazzilli reached on an error, allowing Jones to score. John Castino walked. Brian Harper walked, pushing another run in. Randy Morse singled, scoring Mazzilli and Castino. I struck out to end the inning. Six runs, only one earned.

Giants lead 6-0!

I got a Jerry Mumphrey grounder for the 2nd out in the 4th. After that Keith Hernandez singled, getting the first baserunner for Houston.

In the 5th I was pivot on a Castino - Priske - Mazzilli double play, nailing Dickie Then and Ron Hassey.

I led off the 6th by grounding out to Hernandez at 1st.

I go the 1st out in the bottom half off a pinch hitter Terry Puhl grounder.

In the 8th I came up with one out and popped up to Doran at 2nd. In the bottom half I got Glenn Davis' pinch hitter grounder for the 2nd out.

In the end Randy Morse threw a 6-hit shut out in his 2nd ever start!

We won 6-0! 59-48!

I went 1 for 5 with a double and a run scored.

We have passed the Reds into 2nd place in the NL West... though we still trail the Dodgers by 4.5 games.

Tomorrow we have a travel day and then we are home to face the Braves!
